Alec Baldwin defends film maker Woody Allen as Hollywood backs away
Woody Allen
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actor Alec Baldwin on Tuesday expressed support for  film maker Woody Allen  as a growing number of entertainment industry stars seek to distance themselves from the "Annie Hall" director as part of the Time's Up campaign against sexual misconduct.
Baldwin  who appeared in three of  Allen 's films  said on Twitter that the renunciation of the director and his work was "unfair and sad to me."
Baldwin said working with  Allen  was "one of the privileges of my career."
 Allen  has repeatedly denied decades-old accusations that  he  molested  his  adopted daughter Dylan Farrow when she was seven years old in the early 1990s.
But sentiment has turned against  him  during the sexual misconduct scandal sweeping Hollywood that has led to dozens of successful men being forced to resign or being dropped from projects.
Representatives of  Allen  did not respond to a request for comment on Tuesday. The director has never been charged with a crime.
 Allen   82  won Oscars for the films "Annie Hall " "Hannah and Her Sisters" and the 2011 comedy "Midnight in Paris " and continues to release a new movie almost every year.
Timothy Chaplet  22  the star of gay romance "Call me By Your Name " this week became the latest actor to announce he will donate the salary he earned from an  Allen  movie to "Time's Up" and other causes for sexual abuse victims.
He followed Rebecca Hall  Ellen Page and Mira Sorkin who have made donations or issued regrets about working with  Allen  in recent weeks. Last week "Lady Bird" director Greta Gehrig  who acted in the 2012 film "To Rome with Love " said she would not work with  Allen  again.
 Allen 's most recent film "Wonder Wheel " distributed by Amazon Studios  has fared poorly at the North American box office taking only $1.4 million since its Dec. 1 release.
 His  next film "A Rainy Day in New York " starring Chaplet and also from Amazon  is due for release later this year.
