Liam Neeson had an awkward experience with Woodly Allen back in the 1990s when he was filming on set of the comedic drama "Husbands and Wives."
In an interview with GQ, the "Taken" actor revealed Allen had been late to set one day and it was regarding Mia Farrow allegedly finding inappropriate photos of Soon-Yi before the scandal broke. Neeson told GQ many people do not believe the following story, but it happened:
There's a scene where I'm going down on Judy Davis, right. Judy and I are in bed-obviously covered up-and as I'm going down, Judy's having this monologue in her head. And the crew are all ready, and we're waiting for Woody. No-show. It's starting to get a bit uncomfortable-it's a bed scene. Anyway, he came out after about twenty minutes and said, "Okay. Camera starts on Judy. Liam, I want to just see the top of your head. Okay, we know where you're going. . . ." So there was no apology; nothing. What happened: His lawyer had gotten in touch with him to say Ms. Farrow has found naked photographs of her adopted daughter [Soon-Yi].
Neeson didn't comment about the allegations against Allen, but revealed to GQ he and his late wife Natasha Richardson eventually became good friend with Mia Farrow around the time of the scandal:
[A] few months later, Mia was doing a film with Natasha in Ireland. And Mia, Natasha, and myself became very good friends. She's lovely. We had a couple of Guinnesses one night, and I told her I was going to marry this woman, and Mia gives this talk about pillars of wisdom: There are certain pillars of wisdom she'd stick to and never veer from. It was quite a beautiful thing about what it is to love someone, respect them, be with them through thick and thin. It was fantastic.
Allen recently made headlines after his adopted daughter Dylan Farrow accused him of molestation around time his Oscar nomination was announced. Farrow told her story in an open letter published by the New York Times. Allen was never charged or convicted of child molestation.
