Ronan Farrow doesn’t blame Mira Sorvino for working with Woody Allen: ‘It was a different time’ – Yahoo News

“I think for anyone who has a loved one who has confronted [sexual assault] issues, you know that on top of everything else and all the ways in which it is painful for the survivor of sexual violence, it’s also something that creates a blast radius for those around them, and is inconvenient on top of everything else,” Farrow admitted. “It’s something people want to turn away from.”

He continued, “I was not always super principled about saying, ‘You should go for it.’ As you say, I was very much the guy who I think is in so many survivors’ lives, saying, ‘Is this really worth it?’ Part of the evolution I go through over the course of the book is coming to understand that it really is worth it and that she was doing something courageous.”
