Woody Allen booed out of 80th Venice Film Festival

After being booed out of his film screening, Woody Allen, 87, leaves Venice Film Festival in Italy alongside his wife Soon-Yi Previn, 52, who is his ex-girlfriend's adopted daughter.

The Daily Mail reported that, "The couple's relationship has been mired by controversy as Soon-Yi is the adopted daughter of Woody's ex-girlfriend Mia Farrow.

Mia and Woody began dating in 1979, but 13 years later their relationship ended when Woody, then 55, and Soon-Yi, then 21, were caught having an affair.

Woody and his family were at Venice Film Festival for the premiere and first official screening of his film Coup De Chance."

The festival was overshadowed by booing from opposition over allegations that he sexually assaulted his adoptive daughter, Dylan Farrow, which he vehemently denies.

A group of protesters marched by Allen, chanting in Italian: 'We are the loud and fierce shout of all the bodies that no longer have a voice.'

Allen's film Coup De Chance will unlikely be screened in the US after Hollywood cut ties with him following his daughter's allegations.
