Alec Baldwin, Unafraid Of The Woody Lynch Mob

I've already covered the Woody Allen allegations that Mia Farrow and her kids Ronan and Dylan have laid down on him. His reputation has surely been hit as actors that have worked with him in the past, no doubt driven, pressured, by the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements, have changed their tune on the director and now expressed regrets in working with the 82-year-old filmmaker.  Ellen Page, Greta Gerwig, Rebecca Hall, and Timothée Chalamet have all expressed remorse in working with Allen.

So it was with a breath of fresh air that I read Alec Baldwin's tweets earlier this afternoon, DEFENDING Woody. Baldwin's starred in three Woody movies: “Alice,” “To Rome With Love,” and “Blue Jasmine.”

Woody Allen was investigated forensically by two states (NY and CT) and no charges were filed. The renunciation of him and his work, no doubt, has some purpose. But it’s unfair and sad to me. I worked w WA 3 times and it was one of the privileges of my career.

Is it possible to support survivors of pedophilia and sexual assault/abuse and also believe that WA is innocent?
I think so.
The intention is not to dismiss or ignore such complaints. But accusing ppl of such crimes should be treated carefully. On behalf of the victims, as well.
