The Woody Allen debacle has many fans conflicted, but apparently not Oscar voters. Michael Musto at The Daily Beast interviewed an Oscar voter who, while not voting for Allen, was not swayed by the director’s personal life:
I didn’t vote for his screenplay, just because I liked another one better. [The alleged scandal] wasn’t a factor. I thought Her was really original. Woody Allen’s screenplay was so much Streetcar–Named–Desire driven. He borrowed and used things. But Her was an original work of art.
