Woody Allen's son posts sarcastic Father's Day message

Woody Allen's estranged son Ronan Farrow has posted a sarcastic Twitter message making fun of his famous father.

Farrow is the son of the Midnight in Paris director and ex-wife Mia Farrow.



An activist and Rhodes scholar currently serving in the Obama administration, Farrow has not been in contact with his father since the 1990s.

The 25-year-old stopped speaking to Allen when the director developed a romantic relationship with Soon-Yi Previn, Mia Farrow's adopted daughter with her second husband André Previn.

A message posted to Ronan Farrow's Twitter account read: "Happy father's day - or as they call it in my family, happy brother-in-law's day."

Mia Farrow then retweeted her son's message, adding, "Boom."

Allen has been married to Previn since 1997, with whom he has two daughters.
