It's a 45 year old story. Woody Allen in the photo montage is a big red flag. But I wouldn't exactly call this breaking news. Brooke Shields had been out about her atrocious treatment even before #MeToo.

    It’s not breaking news but it is a really interesting snapshot in time showing how not only were these behaviors occurring, it was at times very publicly normalized. Comparing a 13 year old actress to a “nascent whore” is staggering.

    Still infuriating, I'm not sure why you made this comment.

    Woody Allen in the photo montage is a big red flag.

    Not at the time, though. His proclivities were not widely known 'til he and Farrow split in 1992, when she found out about Soon-Yi.

    ...Well, you might have had an inkling if you saw Manhattan.
