Woody Allen’s adopted daughter has said she feels "outrage" after what she described as “years of being ignored, disbelieved and tossed aside”.

Dylan Farrow said she was “hurt” and “angry” in an extract of what is her first ever TV interview. She expected to discuss her sexual assault allegations against her adoptive father.

“I am credible, and I am telling the truth, and I think it’s important that people realise that one victim, one accuser, matters. And that they are enough to change things,” Farrow said.

The 32-year-old, who appears visibly emotional in the preview of the interview, has repeatedly accused Allen of molesting her when she was just seven in 1992. She was speaking to US broadcaster CBS News.

The acclaimed director has always denied the allegations and claims they were fabricated by his former partner and Dylan's mother, Mia Farrow.

The 82-year-old was investigated over the claim he molested his daughter in an attic but he was not charged.

In the interview which was filmed at her home in Bridgewater, Connecticut, Farrow voiced frustration at the suggestion she had merely been swept up in the momentum of the Hollywood Me Too campaign.

“Why shouldn't I want to bring him down? Why shouldn't I be angry? Why shouldn't I be hurt?” she said. ”Why shouldn't I feel some sort of outrage... after all these years of being ignored, disbelieved and tossed aside?“

She added: ”All I can do is speak my truth and hope - hope that somebody will believe me rather than just hearing”.

Back in 2014 Farrow wrote an open letter alleging she had been molested by Allen but he responded to the claims by branding them “untrue and disgraceful”.

Farrow, who is the sister of journalist Ronan Farrow, repeated her claims Allen was a “predator” in a slew of tweets sent ahead of last week’s Golden Globes award ceremony.

Allen has been faced with renewed questions over his alleged behaviour as he gets ready for the release of his latest Hollywood film, A Rainy Day in New York.

The fresh attention on the allegations against Allen has resulted in several actors apologising for appearing in films made by the director.

Timothée Chalamet, who gained worldwide acclaim for his role in Call Me By Your Name, announced he would donate his salary from the new film to a fund set up to tackle sexual harassment and inequality in entertainment and beyond.

Rebecca Hall previously apologised for her role in the film and said she would also donate her earnings to the initiative which is called Time’s Up.

But Alec Baldwin, who worked with the director on To Rome With Love (2010) and Blue Jasmine (2010), has criticised some actors' decision to express their regret over working with Allen.

“Woody Allen was investigated forensically by two states (NY and CT) and no charges were filed. The renunciation of him and his work, no doubt, has some purpose. But it’s unfair and sad to me. I worked with Woody Allen three times and it was one of the privileges of my career,” he said.
