Cate Blanchett hopes Woody Allen's family 'find some peace'

Cate Blanchett has responded to Dylan Farrow's open letter saying that she hopes that Woody Allen's and Mia Farrow's families find some resolution and peace.

The 44-year-old actress told website Hollywood Elsewhere, outside the Santa Barbara film festival, that it's obviously been a long and painful situation for the family, the Sydney Morning Herald reported.

In an open letter, Dylan had mentioned a number of actors including Blanchett and asked them to examine their relationship with Allen after she detailed being abused by the director when she was only seven years old.
