I'm sure Dylan's used to getting dragged through the mud for speaking up about being molested by now, at least.
More than anyone else in the documentary, I found Dylan herself to be the most believeable. Also, the taped phone calls between Allen and Farrow really sink him to a newfound low in terms of his character, in my opinion. If anything, it appears that Farrow gave Allen too much the benefit of the doubt and too many second chances in the whole situation. Very sad for Dylan - and Soon-Yi as well for that matter.
