Also Woody Allen's own quote "I'm 35 years older, and somehow, through no fault of mine or hers, the dynamic worked. I was paternal. She responded to someone paternal."

Kind of ruins the argument that he didn't believe himself to be paternal to her.
He was tried and found not guilty of molesting the 7 year old. Honestly, no one knows what really happened, but likely Allen himself. However, you bringing it up as if it was fact that he molested the 7 year old isn't correct. Farrow also has a lot of reason to be upset and irrational here.

Merely because there is some kind of paternal aspect to a much older man dating a younger woman, that doesn't make it illegal. There is always going to be a strange dynamic between a couple when you have a 20+ year age difference. Woody Allen saying something awkward about it doesn't make it illegal or immoral.
