NY DAILY NEWS....RUSH AND MOLLOY
Time apparently has not diluted Mia Farrow's hatred of ex-lover Woody Allen.
Farrow has refused to allow so much as one frame of her performance in an Allen film to be used in a Turner Classic Movies tribute to the director.
The documentary, "Woody Allen: A Life in Film," is due to air on May 4. But producers have had to excise clips that feature Farrow in "Alice," "The Purple Rose of Cairo" and "Hannah and Her Sisters."
We're told that Allen wanted them in. But Farrow apparently wanted no association in the film with the man who married her adopted daughter Soon-Yi
Previn.
"She was the one that wouldn't okay the clips," says a TCM spokeswoman. "He, in this case, is the innocent victim, the innocent party."
The producers ended up cutting the "Alice" clip and using Farrow-free scenes from "Hannah" and "Purple Rose."
And Farrow isn't the only one who'd like to whittle the Woodman. Some Italians are branding him a traitor for choosing to unveil his movie "Hollywood Ending" at the Cannes Film Festival instead of the Venice Film Festival, where he frequently has his premieres.
"Bravo, Woody, what an intelligent gesture," deputy minister for culture Vittorio Sgarbi declared sarcastically in an interview.
La Repubblica called Allen's decision "a slap in the face." Allen's rep declined to comment on Mia, but said the choice of Cannes "will
make sense when you see the end of the movie."
