‘I DIDN’T WANT HIM TO DO IT, MAMA !' New video shows Dylan Farrow, 7, claiming sex abuse by Woody Allen

-

EXPLOSIVE newly revealed home movies show Mia Farrow’s seven-year-old daughter Dylan graphicall­y claiming movie icon Woody Allen groped and sexually abused her!

Shot by mama Mia in 1992, the video features Dylan saying the director groped her in an attic of the family’s Connecticu­t country house and details of the alleged encounter:

“He started telling me weird things. Then he went behind me and touched my privates.

“‘Do not move, I have to do this.’ But I wiggled my bum to see what he was doing. He said: ‘Don’t move, I have to do this. If you stay still we can go to Paris.’

“‘Because this way you could be in my movie, if I do this.’

“I didn’t want him to do it, Mama. I didn’t like it. I don’t want to talk about it.”

In another video, Dylan says she and Woody were on a couch and “he touched [my] privates and then he was breathing on my leg.”

Mia asks what she means by “privates” and Dylan points to her behind.

Allen, now 85, has repeatedly denied molesting Dylan, who Mia adopted with former hubby Andre Previn. Before the scandal exploded, Mia and Woody were lovers who lived apart — but their affair took a bizarre turn.

He claims the Rosemary’s Baby actress was bitterly jealous after he dumped her for another adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn.

Allen insists he first bedded Soon-Yi, who is now his wife, when she was 21 and he was 55 in December 1991.

He claims shortly after Mia found shocking explicit photos of Soon-Yi in his apartment, she began coaching Dylan to describe him as a filthy pedophile, which Farrow has consistent­ly denied.

But the new never-beforeseen footage — bared in the recent HBO documentar­y Allen v. Farrow — paints Allen in a terrible light.

Mia’s sister Tisa claims she spied Woody putting sunscreen on young Dylan’s back and he slid his hand down between her buttocks and “kind of lingered.”

Family friend Casey Pascal says a babysitter told her she caught Dylan on a couch with Woody “kneeling on the floor with his head buried in her lap.

“She said she felt she’d

walked in on a very adult situation and realized it was a child and she was horrified to the core. She said Dylan was staring off into space.”

Mia claims that later she remembered Dylan wasn’t “wearing any underpants” at the time of the alleged encounter.

Mia filed charges against Woody in the summer of 1992 and he was cleared by officials in Connecticu­t and New York.

The Child Sexual Abuse Clinic of Yale–New Haven Hospital concluded there was no sexual abuse and Mia likely coached Dylan. New York’s social service officials also found “no credible evidence” of sexual abuse.

But in the years since, Dylan, 35, has refused to recant her story and has repeatedly attacked Allen, who claims in his 2020 memoir he would welcome her back in his life “with open arms,” and says the scandal “was one of the saddest things in my life.”
