		</div><p>Film director Spike Lee has apologised for words he said were “<i>wrong</i>”, after voicing support for Woody Allen and criticising cancel culture.</p>
<p>In an interview Friday on the New York radio station WOR 710, Lee called Allen “<i>a great, great filmmaker</i>”.</p>
<p>“<i>This cancel thing is not just Woody.</i></p>
<p><i>“And I think that when we look back on it, (we’re) gonna see that, short of killing somebody, I don’t know if you can just erase somebody like they never existed.</i></p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I Deeply Apologize. My Words Were WRONG. I Do Not And Will Not Tolerate Sexual Harassment, Assault Or Violence. Such Treatment Causes Real Damage That Can&#39;t Be Minimized.-Truly, Spike Lee.</p>

<p>“<i>Woody’s a friend of mine,</i>” said Lee. “<i>I know he’s going through it right now.</i>”<br />
The following day, Lee tweeted an apology.</p>
<p>“<i>My words were WRONG,</i>” he wrote.</p>
<p>“<i>I do not and will not tolerate sexual harassment, assault or violence. Such treatment causes real damage that can’t be minimised.</i>”</p>
<p>Allen has been accused of molesting his daughter Dylan Farrow when she was seven years old in the early 1990s.</p>
<p>Allen has long denied the allegation.</p>
<p>Earlier this year, he released a memoir through Arcade Publishing after his original publisher, Hachette Book Group, dropped the book amid widespread criticism.</p>
<p>Lee’s latest film, the Vietnam War drama Da 5 Bloods debuted Friday on Netflix.</p>
