AfterBroadway Danny Rose,Farrow had a supporting role inJeannot Szwarc's superhero filmSupergirl(1984), playingAlura In-Ze,the mother ofSupergirl.[65]The film was considered abox office bomb,earning $13 million against its $35 million budget.[66][67]

In 1987, Farrow appeared in two films directed by Allen: the comedyRadio Days,in which she had a supporting role as an aspiring radio star;[74]and the dramaSeptember,in which she played a woman haunted by her killing of her mother's abusive lover.[75]Farrow shot the latter film twice, originally with her own mother Maureen O'Sullivan playing her character's mother in the film.[75]Displeased with the final cut, Allen decided to recast several roles and reshoot the film entirely. The second and final version featuredElaine Stritchas Farrow's mother in the film.[76]Farrow was subsequently cast oppositeGena Rowlandsin Allen's dramaAnother Woman(1988), which follows a philosophy professor (Rowlands) who becomes acquainted with a troubled woman undergoing an existential crisis (Farrow).[77]While the film earned praise from critics such as Roger Ebert,[78]its screenplay and dialogue were criticized byVincent CanbyinThe New York Times.He described it as "full of an earnest teen-age writer's superfluous words."[79]In 1989, Farrow starred in a segment of Allen's anthology filmNew York Stories,playing theshiksafiancée of a Jewish man (Allen).

Farrow had a lead role in Allen's dramaHusbands and Wives(1992), in which she portrayed the wife of a writer and professor (Allen) having an affair with one of his students.[85]Husbands and Wivesmarked Farrow's final collaboration with Allen. It was released shortly after the couple's highly publicized separation.[85]Todd McCarthyofVarietynoted in his review of the film that much of its audience would watch it "for the titillation of seeing Allen make out with a 21-year-old and go through a wrenching split from Farrow onscreen. Even those who enter in this frame of mind, however, probably will put these thoughts aside for the most part as they become involved in the romantic longings and verbal crossfire of a host of interesting, difficult, intersecting characters."[86]

In 1980, following her divorce from Previn, Farrow adopted Moses Farrow, a two-year-old Korean orphan withcerebral palsy.[176]In 1985, Farrow adopted Dylan Farrow (born July 1985, adopted at two weeks old).[181]Dylan was known as "Eliza" for some time and also as "Malone".[182][159]In December 1991, a New York City court allowed Woody Allen to co-adopt Dylan and Moses.[183]

With Allen, Farrow gave birth to her fourth and final biological child, sonSatchel Ronan O'Sullivan Farrow(later known simply as Ronan Farrow),[2]on December 19, 1987.[184]In a 2013 interview withVanity Fair,Farrow stated Ronan could "possibly" be the biological child of Frank Sinatra, with whom she claimed to have "never really split up."[185]In a 2015CBS Sunday Morninginterview, Sinatra's daughterNancydismissed the idea that her father is also the biological father of Ronan Farrow, calling it "nonsense". She said that her children were affected by the rumor because they were being questioned about it. "I was kind of cranky with Mia for even saying 'possibly,'" she said. "I was cranky with her for saying that because she knew better, you know, she really did. But she was making a joke! And it was taken very serious and was just silly, stupid."[186]

Between 1992 and 1995, Farrow adopted five more children: Tam Farrow; Kaeli-Shea Farrow, later known as Quincy Maureen Farrow; Frankie-Minh; Isaiah Justus; and Gabriel Wilk Farrow, later known as Thaddeus Wilk Farrow[187]and named after Elliott Wilk, the judge who oversaw Farrow's 1993 legal battle with Allen.[188]

Tam Farrow died in 2000 at the age of 21. Farrow's spokeswoman Judy Hofflund stated that she died ofcardiac arrest.[189]In May 2018, Moses Farrow made claims on his personal blog that Tam had actually died from a prescription medication overdose following a lifelong battle with depression, and after a fight with her mother.[190]In 2021, Mia Farrow confirmed Moses' claim that Tam had died after an overdose of a prescription medication.[191]On December 25, 2008, Lark Previn died at the age of 35 from complications of HIV/AIDS.[192]On September 21, 2016, Thaddeus Farrow was found dead at the age of 27 after an apparent car crash in Connecticut,[193]though it was subsequently ruled he had committedsuicideby shooting himself in the torso while inside his car.[194]

Farrow has six biological granddaughters from her and Previn's sons (three by Matthew, one by Sascha, and two by Fletcher). She has nine grandchildren from her adopted children.[195][196][197]

Abuse allegations

[edit]

Abuse allegation against Allen

[edit]
Main article:Woody Allen sexual abuse allegation

According to court testimony, on August 4, 1992, Allen visited Farrow's farm inBridgewater, Connecticut,while she was out shopping.[173]The following day, August 5, a babysitter informed Farrow that she had witnessed Allen behaving strangely with the couple's then-seven-year-old adopted daughter, Dylan.[173]When Farrow asked Dylan about the alleged incident, Dylan responded that Allen had touched her "private part" while the two were alone in the attic of the home.[173]One of the women employed to care for Farrow's children claimed that for around 20 minutes that afternoon she had not known where Dylan was, while a second said that, at one point, she noticed Dylan had been wearing no underwear beneath her dress.[198]Farrow reported the incident to the family's pediatrician, who in turn reported the allegations to authorities.[173]Allen was informed of the accusations on August 6. A week later, on August 13, Allen sued for full custody of his biological son, Satchel, and two of Farrow's adopted children, Dylan and Moses, with whom Allen had assumed a parental role.[199][200]

In March 1993, the lead doctor ofYale New Haven HospitalChild Sexual Abuse Clinic, John Leventhal, gave sworn testimony via a deposition that,[201]in his opinion, Dylan "either invented the story under the stress of living in a volatile and unhealthy home or that it was planted in her mind by her mother" because of the "inconsistent" presentation of the story by Dylan.[202]Leventhal did not meet with Dylan prior to giving his testimony, and instead delivered his findings based on interviews conducted by others.[199]The Yale New Haven Hospital team's findings were criticized by the presiding judge, and later by other experts in the field. In particular, the team's behavior was considered unusual for making conclusive statements about innocence and guilt instead of reporting on behavior, for refusing to testify in court when asked, and for destroying all of their notes.[203][204]Justice Elliott Wilk stated that the investigating team's behavior had "resulted in a report which was sanitized, and therefore, less credible" and that its recommendations and statements had "exceed[ed] its mandate." He concluded, "I am less certain, however, than is the Yale-New Haven team, that the evidence proves conclusively that there was no sexual abuse."[200]

In his final decision, in June 1993, Justice Wilk stated that he found "no credible evidence to support Mr. Allen's contention that Ms. Farrow coached Dylan or that Ms. Farrow acted upon a desire for revenge against him for seducing Soon-Yi. Mr. Allen's resort to the stereotypical 'woman scorned' defense is an injudicious attempt to divert attention from his failure to act as a responsible parent and adult."[199]He rejected Allen's bid for full custody and denied him visitation rights with Dylan, stating that even though the full truth of the allegations may never be known, "the credible testimony of Ms. Farrow, Dr. Coates, Dr. Leventhal and Mr. Allen does, however, prove that Mr. Allen's behavior toward Dylan was grossly inappropriate and that measures must be taken to protect her."[200]In September 1993, the state's attorney, Frank Maco, announced he would not pursue Allen in court for the molestation allegations, despite having "probable cause", citing his and Farrow's desire not to traumatize Dylan further.[205]

In February 2014, Dylan publicly renewed her claims of sexual abuse against Allen, in an open letter published byNicholas Kristof,a friend of Farrow, in hisNew York Timesblog.[206][207][208]Allen repeated his denial of the allegations and also addressed in detail how and why the allegations against him were false in his 2020 memoir entitled “Apropos of Nothing”.[209]

Abuse allegations against Farrow

[edit]

Soon Yi Previnand Moses Farrow have defended Allen against the abuse allegations.[210]In 2013, Moses Farrow publicly asserted that Mia had coached her children into believing stories she made up about Allen.[211][212]

In 2018, Moses published a lengthy blog post arguing for Allen's innocence. Moses also recounted a series of incidents in which he and his siblings were physically abused by Farrow.[c]

Later relationships

[edit]

Farrow states that she would no longer bring dates or significant others into her home in the years following the abuse allegations due to lingering mistrust. She explained, "I didn't want to risk anybody falling for one of my beautiful children or grandchildren," and, "I would never take another risk with anybody else."[220]
