The Cannes Film Festival opened on May 11 to a joke that made people gasp. "It's very nice that you've been shooting so many movies in Europe, even if you are not being convicted of rape in the U.S.," said Master of Ceremonies Lauren Lafitte.

People interpreted this as a knock on director Woody Allen. For the past two decades, his daughter Dylan Farrow has maintained that that he sexually abused her as a child. The day that Cannes opened, her brother Ronan wrote an op-ed that accused the media of letting his father off too easy. But Woody himself didn't seem to care.

"I'm completely in favor of comedians making any jokes they want," he said to Vulture. "I am a nonjudgmental, non-censorship person on jokes. I'm a comic myself, and I feel they should be free to make whatever jokes they want."

"I'm never offended," he added. "It would take a lot to offend me."

This doesn't mean that the director is impervious to criticism altogether. According to Vulture, he said that he won't read anything written about him and/or his relationship with Dylan. Ronan's op-ed is no exception. "I've said all I have to say about it," he said.
