...Soon-Yi, she erupted. In a strong scene, she depicts Allen begging to come back and promising to give up her daughter, but amid floods of tears Farrow was unyielding. She realized that her trust had already been undermined by her suspicions that Allen's interest in pretty, blond Dylan--the only child he sought out--was in part erotic. "Why did I stay with Woody Allen when so much was wrong?" she asks herself.
