Informative and in depth doc of blown up headlines a scandal that rocked all involved.
"HBO" has once again done it with a near excellent and blunt revealing doc as this looks at and examines the real life drama between Woody Allen and Mia Farrow, as a viewer you are drawn into the drama of "Allen v. Farrow" as the 4 part doc has you asking for questions as to who to believe or not to believe. Clearly you see a family that has been torn apart as Mia had to deal with her filmmaking partner Woody having an affair and later marriage to her daughter Soon-Yi, to complicate matters bad things may have went down between Woody and Mia's adopted 7 year old daughter Dylan. Director Kirby Dick really moves this doc with intimate and real feel by showing vintage old home family movies, clips and drawings of court documents, interviews, and real network news reports as even raw evidence was examined in this very high profile case that involved custody and abuse. Overall watching you feel emotion while looking at a pop culture legend in Allen still you can form your own decision from watching as this is one must see headlining documentary.
