Getty ImagesLena Dunham hasn't shied away from speaking out about Woody Allen in the past, and she certainly isn't going to stop anytime soon.
During the Power of Story: Serious Ladies panel at this year's Sundance Film Festival—alongside Kristen Wiig, Mindy Kaling and Jenji Kohan—the Girls actress continued to be candid when asked about the controversial director.
"Woody Allen is proof that people don't think everything he says in his films is stuff that he does because all he was doing was making out with 17-year-olds for years and we didn't say anything about it," she told the crowd.
"No one thought that Woody Allen is making out with a 17-year-old in Manhattan and said, 'I guess he's a real perv,' and then lo and behold."
Dunham also shared that she strongly believes it's "important to talk about campus assaults" and that "sexual assault is an epidemic and so many people are voiceless."
She added, "I think campuses are a great place to start because that's where we're being educated and that's where we're told we're going to be safe."
Just last year, amid drama surrounding the Blue Jasmine director's Golden Globe honor, Dunham stopped by Marc Maron's WTF podcast and voiced similar thoughts about Allen.
"When people go through his work and comb through it for references to child molestation, that's not the f--king point. I'm not gonna indict the work. I think that you can decide that you don't want to support the work of somebody who has molested a child. That's a completely appropriate choice."
Last February, Allen spoke out about the allegations against him in The New York Times.
"The self-serving transparency of her malevolence seemed so obvious I didn't even hire a lawyer to defend myself," he wrote. "It was my show business attorney who told me she was bringing the accusation to the police and I would need a criminal lawyer."
Allen continued: "I naïvely thought the accusation would be dismissed out of hand because of course, I hadn't molested Dylan and any rational person would see the ploy for what it was. Common sense would prevail. After all, I was a 56-year-old man who had never before (or after) been accused of child molestation."
