Farrow said she was spurred to comment after Allen was recently honoured with a lifetime achievement award at the Golden Globes. Farrow said Hollywood’s continued embrace of Allen worsened her torment.

Allen was investigated on child molestation allegations, but he was never charged. However, the investigating prosecutor said there was “probable cause.”

Representatives for Allen did not immediately return requests for comment Saturday.
