The white evangelical voters are so easily fooled; and by a POTUS who came from show business. These evangelicals would have gushed over Hitler if Hitler dangled the carrot of false religious support. They should wonder why he takes from the poor and gives to the rich. The evangelicals should study their religion; and absorb the part where Jesus, the Christ told them how hard it is for the rich to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
Bea Kiddo Both of them ,thanks him ,HELLO they were happy that time See in court ,they will ask them , so you WHERE happy when you won the OSCAR SO WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM NOW LADIES ???????? NOW IF HAVE A LOT OF $$$$$$$$ And it is time to START talking about his abused to us ,,,, HELLO ,,,looks so stupid 😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
Watch the documentary "Open Secret". Many producer/director pedos in Hollywood too. No young person, male or female, is safe amongst these douche bags.
No one exposes anyone in hollywood unless someone in the higher up says so, hence he was doing it for *3 decades* and it was a known fact in hollywood. There are reason why they don't investigate Thandie Newton, Corey Feldman, Marilyn Monroe, etc. sexual predators. If they wanted to expose them, they would have done that more than 10 decades ago.
what other top producers are those? I am getting really sick of people automatically wanting to believe the worst about anyone with wealth or power or in the entertainment business just because some washed up 80's ex-teeny-bopper stars run their mouths in interviews so they can get asked onto other shows to hint at it some more for a cool 25,00$ appearance for 5 minutes of talking.
The jennifer lawrence connection makes so much sense! I've always been shocked that she had an oscar and enough power in hollywood for them to rewrite the xmen movies to focus on her character without the talent to justify it.
At the time I walked out of the cinema because it was poor at so many levels. The poor level of production (boom mikes in shot, rushed scenes) is best demonstrated by Good Will Hunting. Weinstein rushed it to make oscar screenings.
Mecha Martini It winning an oscar actually made me go to the theatre to watch it.. and I could not understand for the life of me why it got the oscar.. now I do.
I have ALWAYS wondered why certain people GET THOSE DAMN Oscars even when their movies weren't so awesome or didn't compare to other movies out during the same year! Even questioned why certain actors won Oscars and others pulled off AMAZING performances beyond what the winner displayed! NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE! That's not to say that I already didn't think the Oscars was always full of shit but now I who want to be an actor really lost all respect for it...
Rohan Dhakal The Oscar awards are decided by the Academy, which is a bunch of actors, producers, directors and others in the industry voting to decide who wins Oscars. The backers of a particular movie, actor whatever then "sell" it to the members of the Academy to try to influence their vote. They do this by offering monetary things, applying pressure, using their influence, promises etc. So you need an example? How about every single award show and every single Oscar that is awarded.
Wow. Agreed. I stopped watching it years ago too. I think instinctively I started getting tired seeing the wrong people win like something felt wrong so i stopped watching it... seriously 🙁
Yesh Actors and actresses should do something about this. Protest or something. Although not sure that will ever happen... integrity is something that's hard to come by these days I guess... :(
lmao, those actors and actresses will never protest the industry. No one there wants to end up like Corey Feldmen. Hollywood is truly disgusting. You should watch this documentary (that was conveniently blacklisted from Hollywood) ua-cam.com/video/DU2TIDO5YIw/v-deo.html An Open Secret
To all those asking "I wonder who else at the top is doing this? Weinstein can't be the only one." The video is perfectly edited for you to start that list without outrightly accusing them. Weinstein hints at the people at the end of the video. When you edit films/videos, like myself, every detail counts. I thought it was weird to end the video like that, but I realized that it had a purpose. Great job, Washington Post.
One of the best new fresh talents to come along in a long time. She has that classic timeless Beauty from days gone by, with a "I don't take myself to seriously" attitude. Really look forward watching her career moving forward.
So Gwyneth was sexually harassed but still went on working with the guy on several movies! ....Maybe to make it in Hollywood you have no choice but to work with Weinstein but is being sexually harassed or assaulted worth it? I guess it is for a lot of Hollywood actors!
That's the deal they make for fame & fortune. The worst part of the deal is that their silence has created more victims.....young women, men, and children.
I always knew she was phony. Her entire presentation seemed stupid, artificial, and not genuine. She wasn't born, but literally made and pre packaged by Weinstein Company. This explain her sudden catapult to fame, fortune, and string of aware nominations.
Jonathan Rose Do you believe she deserved the oscar for Silver Lining's Playbook? I didn't find her performance to be oscar worthy, but that is just my opinion.
Jonathan Rose I liked the mkvie. She was ok in it and portrayed the character well. But I dont think it was oscar worthy. It was just like any other romance dramedy movies
I'm surprised that so many people are surprised that this happens in Hollywood. The "Casting Couch" has been around as long as the film industry itself.
And there you go....this is just the beginning of something much bigger. Everybody knew what was going on but they all kept quit. For the abused that is something I can understand, being a top movie star and living in the lime light and then coming out as a rape victim isn't easy. Nobody however can convince that the academy didn't have a clue. Child actors being abused in Hollywood is an open secret, still nothing is coming out - brian singer is one of em!
Oh my gosh. Right before I heard about this, I was talking to my mother about how many people who almost made it but stopped after getting assaulted. And then I asked, "if it was that bad for people who didn't make it, how bad do you think it is for the people who have?" And then that came out. What a sad industry that allows this to happen for THIRTY years before doing anything.
How can you be surprise? How many fathers who sexually abused their daughter, yet their daughter act like a good little girl and obey their dad in public? They do it because they didn't have a choice or at least think they didn't .... I'm so glade GP is fighting this fat fuck!
Grandma Adelaide it happens. A friend of mine was raped by a family member and he still ended up giving a toast at his wedding. Sexual abuse fucks ppl up, it's not black and white like law and ordersvu has u thinking. When a human experiences trauma it's fight or flight. Sometimes flight means not speaking up or playing along
He made them millionaires, I would have thank him too. If you think i have been harassed few days ago by an academic professor who can merely give me the chance to get my papers published in some journal... I'd prefer to get harassed by one who could make of myself a star :) :)
So basically these women kept quiet mostly in self interest because these are very successful women putting other young actresses at risk by not speaking up and now that it's out they feel "brave" enough to talk? I don't like victim blaming but I don't view these actresses as poor helpless little women. Weinstein is a monster but they sure made a career off of this monster.
It's horrible what he has done, and what he is! But obviously the whole 'system' is corrupt and they have ALL accepted it. It is difficult to call the people speaking out against him "courageous" as they all have kept quiet for so many years... decades even. So they too are corrupt. At the risk of sounding like some religious person, when you accept this behaviour you lose something, that should be more important than the chance of getting a movie role, or staying 'friends' with the right people; I think they once called it "personal integrity".
First of all: this explains how JLAW sand Gwyneth won oscars because we all know they didn’t deserve it 😂 Secondly: how dare gwyneth accuse Weinstein of harassment when she blatantly THANKED HIM several times for winning!!!
I will probably get ripped apart for this but I have to say it: For years people have been saying that if a person wanted to make it big as an actor or actress in hollywood, they better be willing to do ANYTHING to achieve it, and if they were successful, they most likely DID. Out of all these well known actresses who are coming forward with these allegations against that fat slob, the only one I view as having the guts to stand up to him was Courtney Love. Years ago she came to the defense of someone whom Harvey was molesting and was about to take him to task, but of course crooked power pushers in the legal business shut down her efforts.
This just says they ALL knew the how, when, and why but chose fame and fortune over morality. But hey, all part of the business right?!? You should all be ashamed for allowing this atmosphere to exist for so long. #BloodOnYourHands #AwardsAreFixed SMHH
Darlene Pytlinski people in show business are all the same.....fame....fortune...power.....willing and dealing are all part of the game.....no..business is like show business...the good...bad...ugly...its the norm...as you can see and hear....but like everything in life it has to come to an end....I'll be glad and look forward .to changes....minus hollywood...
Well being "not normal" isn't a crime. And to be honest neither is being a repulsive pig, or sexually harassing women up to a point. It will be interesting to see if this guy actually broke the law anywhere. If exposing your underwear to the opposite sex is against the law, clearly Madonna and most teenagers are going to jail. I'm having a hard time being outraged about this to be honest. We have people stealing to stay alive and shooting each other, and we waste time on worrying about the mating antics of the super-rich. Meh!
Darlene Pytlinski these woman need to learn to open their mouths as soon as they are attacked and not decades later. The fact of the matter they were suduced by the fame that he was given to them and then years later when their careers and opportunities dried up they start screaming bloody murder.
Yet Gwenyth & Mira still went and made movies with him after being sexually harassed by him. More than once in Gwenyth's case! Honestly they have no right to sit there and act like victims they weren't victims. Maybe in a sense but not really because they basically said it was okay for him to do that when they worked with him. I don't give a damn having a successful career isn't worth your self respect. Such bullshit that everyone puts this man on a pedestal. He's a dirty piece of shit.
Boy!!! Whom did he pissed off ... Hes not the only leaze ball of illusionwood. Joan Crawford used to sleep with directors for the parts. Tinseltown been like this from the start.
Hopefully we will not have to watch these mediocre , untalented ppl anymore, as he basically made them all... Was wondering what happened with Hollywood in the last 3 decades. Now we know! #shame
lucas plick . Just wait. Harvey is a vindictive prick whos feeling like a lot of his allies have turned on him. When he decides to talk and he will, he'll expose alot of the other a-list perverts and prostitutes.
These actresses have no right to advocate the cause for women issues, if they had spoken earlier many other newcomers would have been saved. Hollywood hypocrisy
Women DID speak up over the years, & were ignored and blacklisted out of Hollywood. Or left because of harassment. Attacking women for speaking up, then or now, does little to help.
But if they had spoken earlier when they were new and upcoming actresses, they would have been shut down and you wouldn't even have known that they existed.
Or the other possibility is that it wasn’t the responsibility of the women to speak up. What about if we focus on the fact that he shouldn’t have laid a finger on them if they didn’t want him to - which they didn’t. Enough of the victim bashing. It’s the old - instead of teaching women how to avoid being raped - what if we teach men - don’t fucking rape!
1:50 - JLaw's response after Weinstein mentions her not thanking him at the Oscars is priceless. You can tell she loathes him the whole time she's beside him.
The audience only see what they want to see . they think the guy who won the award deserves it solely because of his performance. .....not true at all When I look like people like Trump and Weinstein I feel like there is no goodness left in the world .
Your belief is wrong and based in misogyny. He shouldn't blackmail women to sleep with him to get parts, that is wrong. He should give Women parts on merit. Women did not approach him.. he approached women for sexual stuff. And did not care about consent. Don't twist it around.
@@globalcitizenn Yess. Preach! There might be cases of women trying to sleep themselves to the top and offering it. But in Weinstein and most cases it's the men harassing, assaulting and raping women using their power. This is not just the power of being rich and influential but also being a man who has more physical power over women. Theres no excuse for that.
Theres been too many anti-hitler movies made now (ironically by Hollywood jews) They've already evoked empathy in the minds of most Americans. Your an "anti-semite" if wish to point out anything they do now. Hitler realized they band together trick "gentiles" and reap the benefits.
WOW! That definitely explains why Tom Hanks (who was nominated for his performance in “Saving Private Ryan”) lost the “Best Actor” Oscar to Roberto Benigni in “Life is Beautiful”, since the latter film was distributed by MIRAMAX and Weinstein did a lot of Oscar campaigning for “Life is Beautiful”.
What really irks me is that for the sake of fortune and fame, almost all of the players in this, those rising up and those in power, kept their mouths shut fully knowing about Hollywood, things that happen behind the scenes and more. Surely, the buzz had to be going on between women and others but only after all seems to be lost the victims choose to speak out. The Hollywood crap like this is as old as Hollywood itself. Pull up the interview with Larry King speaking to Shirley Temple about her private encounter with Louie B Mayer in his office at MGM. This legendary studio owner pulled his pants down and he exposed himself causing Shirley to laugh it off and walk out effectively ending her movie career but the young woman had her principles and body of past work to look back on.
The sad thing is ... He's not the only one and this isn't the only industry that exploit hopefuls. It's uncomfortable but many women would kill to make that sacrifice.
So, is this suggesting that the women that won Oscars had to subject one way or another to his advances? I know they've come out to say that he 'tried' but seeing as he is so powerful I find it hard to believe that he would have allowed them to continue in his movies if they had declined his fat ass? let alone win Oscars?
The Academy has condemned and off loaded him, they also need to apologise and encourage ALL victims to come forward. Only then will they get any respect.
I humbly respect all of above view and comments here, i have only one question though..... where in the hell has the Women's March gone now ? wait Weinstein was at the Women's March At Sundance right... hmmm so was Chelsea Handler, Madonna, Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, Amy Schumer, America Ferrera, Jessica Chastain , Chloe Grace Moretz, Alicia Keys, Scarlet Johansson, Olivia Wilde , Jason Sudeikis, Maggie Gyllenhaal , Jake Gyllenhaal etc. They r all powerful women, lets see when will they take out another women's march. It took 5 days for Hillary to say something about Weinstein .
Out of all these stars Jennifer Lawrence had the only balls to not mention his name when she got an Oscar- even though she knew it would piss him off 👏
Weinstein isn't the only one in Hollywood with power and influence. I hope we'll see some investigative reporting on the power structures and culture among those people so we can see how he got to where he could do those things and go on unpunished for so long. I'm fairly certain that similar things exist elsewhere (even if it doesn't lead to abuse) although Hollywood may be more.. susceptible to such. More knowledge on how such things start and what they may look like and how best to break them down.
They didn't deserved an oscar (Mira, Gwyneth, Jennifer), other actresses nominated where better actors in better films. But all hollywood is a businnes and arranged. This doesn't surprise me at all. This has been going on for ages.
Weinstein's mother was a demanding perfectionist who frequently criticized him, and this may have contributed to his need for control and power in his relationships with women. However, it is important to note that many people who have difficult childhoods do not become sexual predators, and Weinstein is ultimately responsible for his own actions.
Okay then so I take it these actresses who are claiming to be victims will do the honourable thing and return their Oscars? I wonder how many of these actresses knowingly engaged in sexual favours in return for fame. So sad n pathetic.
Gwyneth Paltrow was "the Queen of Miramax" (Matt Damon) for years, and was already a rising film star and well off - and in a relationship with Brad Pitt, later Ben Affleck. A victim? Or she was a woman with a lot of options who had a very profitable relationship?
I hope people like him will be exposed in every field. I'm sure there are many others not only in the cinema industry...what about fashion, for example?
Why there are people in the comments who accuse these women who made them selves rich and famous and powerful enough which means NOW SAFE enough to come forward to tell the truth about the most powerful abusive man in their industry where they couldn't have told earlier - due to the obvious reason?
A few years ago, at the time of "The Help", African American actress, Viola Davis was well on her way to becoming ONLY the second black actress in the history of the Oscars, to win the Best Actress Oscar. After all, she had just won "The Actor" for Best Actress, at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Then, during the voting period, the media started to print the idea that black actresses were only nominated for playing maids, household help or inferior parts. It raised a few eyebrows. In tandem with that, the media started a lot of "Meryl Streep won only 1 Best Actress Oscar in the last 30 years" items. The voters denied the Oscar to Davis and gave it to Streep. Had they only given it some thought, they'd have come to the right conclusion: Meryl Streep, if she won, would have more Best Actress Oscars than ALL of the black actresses in Hollywood history, COMBINED!
Oh please! It is a well known fact that women who go into that profession are women of low moral character. Drifters, grifters, misfits, miscreants, trading on their looks and their sexuality. .....Please do not waste the taxpayer money going after this guy. If you charge him with a sex crime, he will reveal every sexual encounter that these women of low moral character have ever had, and the jury will find those women as flawed witnesses. Go home girls. You knew what you were getting into when you wanted to be in this field...
Your ignorance is showing....No one has proven anything about Harvey Weinstein either, but we're all pretty convinced he's guilty. (See how that works son?)
Connie Waisanen - Lmao! Everybody knows Harvey is guilty. He's even been recorded talking to a girl in a plain and simple sexual manner. All you and your cronies have on Trump is a conversation with him and another guy. Tking about doing something to a 3rd person isn't the same as doing it. There is more proof against Bill & Hillary with regards to rape than there is against President Trump. See how that works, hunny?
Brad Pitt confronted him... And never won an Oscar until Harvey was in jail...

Now you know why they won.

See in court ,they will ask them , so you WHERE happy when you won the OSCAR SO
WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM NOW LADIES ????????

Paltrow had sex with Weinstein to get the Oscar. He was called punisher because he awarded women who slept with him but punished those who didnt
over FERNANDA MONTENEGRO was a CRIME
So I get it. Harvey did it. But, I want to know who all the others are. He can't be the only one at the top doing this.
Watch the end of the video. Weinstein names them. It's hinted at without directly accusing them.
Watch the documentary "Open Secret". Many producer/director pedos in Hollywood too. No young person, male or female, is safe amongst these douche bags.
Kathryn Dorsey same thing I said
Mila's Life Lars von Trier is the name of the Director

Mira Sorvino spoke up, and she got blacklisted because of it. But at least she has morals, unlike Meryl Streep and Gwenyth Paltrow.
So are they going to expose the other top producers in Hollywood as well? Harvey isn’t the only one ?

Remembered- Only To Be Forgotten Porn is mainstream. It isn’t advertised as such though. but yeah I get you’re point.
That's the rub. HW will produce movies again.
Are they gonna expose all other actresses who did benefit from Weinstein's help.
Like you didn't know that power, sex and money are linked...
Shakespeare in Love over Saving Private Ryan? Right there should tell you these award shows including the Oscars are fixed
may johnson maybe streep sucks better than hanks
clone 2k benigni is another jew
It is well known Miramax spent tens of millions buying votes for Shakespeare in Love.
Saving private ryan was an overly sentimental schmaltzy mess like most spielberg films.
ax is - Streep wasn't in Shakespeare in Love. You mean Paltrow.
The jennifer lawrence connection makes so much sense! I've always been shocked that she had an oscar and enough power in hollywood for them to rewrite the xmen movies to focus on her character without the talent to justify it.
So, what does it mean that Paltrow and Sorvino won Oscars over genuinely talented actors in the same category?
Bc Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James Mcvoy are talented and box office. The movie was created for them.
Jennifer is very talented, when she was first nominated for the Oscar for her role in Winter´s Bone, she didn´t know Harvey
therezinha barone no she's not, her acting is so fake and forced
Ashlee B she knows how the big bear likes it and give it goooood than the others😗😗😗😎
Now I understand why Jennifer Lawrence rise to fame so quickly.
True!
I agree and I know it’s cool to call her mediocre now, but she was still damn good in silverlinings playbook.

So basically these women kept quiet mostly in self interest because these are very successful women putting other young actresses at risk by not speaking up and now that it's out they feel "brave" enough to talk? I don't like victim blaming but I don't view these actresses as poor helpless little women. Weinstein is a monster but they sure made a career off of this monster.
gigglyme2001 Exactly!
It's horrible what he has done, and what he is! But obviously the whole 'system' is corrupt and they have ALL accepted it. It is difficult to call the people speaking out against him "courageous" as they all have kept quiet for so many years... decades even. So they too are corrupt. At the risk of sounding like some religious person, when you accept this behaviour you lose something, that should be more important than the chance of getting a movie role, or staying 'friends' with the right people; I think they once called it "personal integrity".
Not one woman stood up and said a word except Courtney Love who no one listens to.
As soon as it becomes a trend everyone's on the bandwagon.
First of all: this explains how JLAW sand Gwyneth won oscars because we all know they didn’t deserve it 😂
Secondly: how dare gwyneth accuse Weinstein of harassment when she blatantly THANKED HIM several times for winning!!!
I will probably get ripped apart for this but I have to say it:
For years people have been saying that if a person wanted to make it big as an actor or actress in hollywood, they better be willing to do ANYTHING to achieve it, and if they were successful, they most likely DID.
Out of all these well known actresses who are coming forward with these allegations against that fat slob, the only one I view as having the guts to stand up to him was Courtney Love. Years ago she came to the defense of someone whom Harvey was molesting and was about to take him to task, but of course crooked power pushers in the legal business shut down her efforts.
This just says they ALL knew the how, when, and why but chose fame and fortune over morality. But hey, all part of the business right?!? You should all be ashamed for allowing this atmosphere to exist for so long. #BloodOnYourHands #AwardsAreFixed SMHH
Kudos for Courtney Love for having the guts to talk about Harvey back in 2005 ou 2006! 👏👏👏
Now Jeff B, we need to remove Woody Allen and Bill Cosby from Amazon Prime. Women matter.
Darlene Pytlinski people in show business are all the same.....fame....fortune...power.....willing and dealing are all part of the game.....no..business is like show business...the good...bad...ugly...its the norm...as you can see and hear....but like everything in life it has to come to an end....I'll be glad and look forward .to changes....minus hollywood...
No you do not know if that accusation against Woody Allen is legitimate.
ann landers yeah i mean it's totally normal to marry your stepdaughter who you essentially knew from the age of 2.
Well being "not normal" isn't a crime.
And to be honest neither is being a repulsive pig, or sexually harassing women up to a point. It will be interesting to see if this guy actually broke the law anywhere.
If exposing your underwear to the opposite sex is against the law, clearly Madonna and most teenagers are going to jail.
I'm having a hard time being outraged about this to be honest. We have people stealing to stay alive and shooting each other, and we waste time on worrying about the mating antics of the super-rich. Meh!
Darlene Pytlinski these woman need to learn to open their mouths as soon as they are attacked and not decades later. The fact of the matter they were suduced by the fame that he was given to them and then years later when their careers and opportunities dried up they start screaming bloody murder.
Yet Gwenyth & Mira still went and made movies with him after being sexually harassed by him. More than once in Gwenyth's case! Honestly they have no right to sit there and act like victims they weren't victims. Maybe in a sense but not really because they basically said it was okay for him to do that when they worked with him. I don't give a damn having a successful career isn't worth your self respect. Such bullshit that everyone puts this man on a pedestal. He's a dirty piece of shit.
I suspect the men had to service this hideous man as well.
Boy!!! Whom did he pissed off ... Hes not the only leaze ball of illusionwood. Joan Crawford used to sleep with directors for the parts. Tinseltown been like this from the start.
Hopefully we will not have to watch these mediocre , untalented ppl anymore, as he basically made them all... Was wondering what happened with Hollywood in the last 3 decades. Now we know! #shame
I think there are many more like him that haven't been outed that should
lucas plick . Just wait. Harvey is a vindictive prick whos feeling like a lot of his allies have turned on him. When he decides to talk and he will, he'll expose alot of the other a-list perverts and prostitutes.
These actresses have no right to advocate the cause for women issues, if they had spoken earlier many other newcomers would have been saved. Hollywood hypocrisy
Women DID speak up over the years, & were ignored and blacklisted out of Hollywood. Or left because of harassment. Attacking women for speaking up, then or now, does little to help.
But if they had spoken earlier when they were new and upcoming actresses, they would have been shut down and you wouldn't even have known that they existed.
Anna Via yeah the ones who made it to fame and didn’t need him anymore should have gotten together and spoke up years ago
Or the other possibility is that it wasn’t the responsibility of the women to speak up. What about if we focus on the fact that he shouldn’t have laid a finger on them if they didn’t want him to - which they didn’t. Enough of the victim bashing. It’s the old - instead of teaching women how to avoid being raped - what if we teach men - don’t fucking rape!
Shit man. Taking away right from people, are u a nazi?
they are chastising one of their own to create an illusion of fairness. too late lucifer.
1:50 - JLaw's response after Weinstein mentions her not thanking him at the Oscars is priceless. You can tell she loathes him the whole time she's beside him.
Gywenth Paltrow was so undeserving of that best actress award.
How can the Oscars recover from this? Now we know that none of those awards were gotten fair and square.
Hollywood should never preach to us about morals and what is "right"
So all he had to do was manipulate the jury members of the academy by wining and dining them with the stars and smearing his opponents
The audience only see what they want to see . they think the guy who won the award deserves it solely because of his performance. .....not true at all
When I look like people like Trump and Weinstein I feel like there is no goodness left in the world .
I believe some of them ladies have sleep with him to get a part but now they are are a shame they did that and accusing him sexual harassment .SMH
Your belief is wrong and based in misogyny. He shouldn't blackmail women to sleep with him to get parts, that is wrong. He should give Women parts on merit. Women did not approach him.. he approached women for sexual stuff. And did not care about consent. Don't twist it around.
@@globalcitizenn Yess. Preach! There might be cases of women trying to sleep themselves to the top and offering it. But in Weinstein and most cases it's the men harassing, assaulting and raping women using their power. This is not just the power of being rich and influential but also being a man who has more physical power over women. Theres no excuse for that.
Thanks for letting us know how corrupted the Academy was.
Was that the reason for Paltrow's "conscious uncoupling" with Chris Martin ?
Maybe not, the musicians are just as bad...
hotties3v3n Hmm. U r right. It's a sad world that we live in.
Chris Martin and jennifer lawrence dated as well.
How does Gwen beat Meryl Streep in any category!?!??
They accepted his demands to be able to win an oscar.
Shakespeare in Love and the iron lady should never been at the oscars. How the fuck straight out of compton didn't get a Oscar was bs.
uhm, but the molested actress forgott all about it when she won that oscar, right..
The Jewish mafia and the greed of some people make for a nasty combo in the US.
Theres been too many anti-hitler movies made now (ironically by Hollywood jews) They've already evoked empathy in the minds of most Americans. Your an "anti-semite" if wish to point out anything they do now. Hitler realized they band together trick "gentiles" and reap the benefits.
WOW! That definitely explains why Tom Hanks (who was nominated for his performance in “Saving Private Ryan”) lost the “Best Actor” Oscar to Roberto Benigni in “Life is Beautiful”, since the latter film was distributed by MIRAMAX and Weinstein did a lot of Oscar campaigning for “Life is Beautiful”.
Wait, people still give a shit about the Oscars? LOL
Miguel Pereira no and i never did. I prefer to think for myself
What really irks me is that for the sake of fortune and fame, almost all of the players in this, those rising up and those in power, kept their mouths shut fully knowing about Hollywood, things that happen behind the scenes and more. Surely, the buzz had to be going on between women and others but only after all seems to be lost the victims choose to speak out. The Hollywood crap like this is as old as Hollywood itself. Pull up the interview with Larry King speaking to Shirley Temple about her private encounter with Louie B Mayer in his office at MGM. This legendary studio owner pulled his pants down and he exposed himself causing Shirley to laugh it off and walk out effectively ending her movie career but the young woman had her principles and body of past work to look back on.
But they still worked with the freak! Wtf?
The sad thing is ... He's not the only one and this isn't the only industry that exploit hopefuls. It's uncomfortable but many women would kill to make that sacrifice.
Hollywood makes me sick
So, is this suggesting that the women that won Oscars had to subject one way or another to his advances? I know they've come out to say that he 'tried' but seeing as he is so powerful I find it hard to believe that he would have allowed them to continue in his movies if they had declined his fat ass? let alone win Oscars?
Well, when it benefited them to say nothing because they were making millions - they said nothing. So NOW we're supposed to feel sorry for them?
Crusty face and you're a woman shame on you
The Academy has condemned and off loaded him, they also need to apologise and encourage ALL victims to come forward. Only then will they get any respect.
Can u just picture Jennifer Lawrence with Weinstein 😮🍌😮🍌😮🍌
Yes
Kristin J Nope and maybe thats why her film career has stalled
I humbly respect all of above view and comments here, i have only one question though..... where in the hell has the Women's March gone now ?
wait Weinstein was at the Women's March At Sundance right... hmmm so was Chelsea Handler, Madonna, Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart, Amy Schumer, America Ferrera, Jessica Chastain , Chloe Grace Moretz, Alicia Keys, Scarlet Johansson, Olivia Wilde , Jason Sudeikis, Maggie Gyllenhaal , Jake Gyllenhaal etc.
They r all powerful women, lets see when will they take out another women's march. It took 5 days for Hillary to say something about Weinstein .
When you are this powerful then hypocrisy is collateral.
Wait, he produced LOTR???? There goes my childhood
When paltrow has an oscar but someone like debra winger glen close dont
Out of all these stars Jennifer Lawrence had the only balls to not mention his name when she got an Oscar- even though she knew it would piss him off 👏
G Paltrow
"i would like to thank Weinstein......."
enough said.
This isn't even scratching the surface, stay aware 👁
But OW could the go on and not say anything yet accept the award
So basically Gwyneth shouldn’t have won that Oscar without Weinstein?
Weinstein isn't the only one in Hollywood with power and influence. I hope we'll see some investigative reporting on the power structures and culture among those people so we can see how he got to where he could do those things and go on unpunished for so long.
I'm fairly certain that similar things exist elsewhere (even if it doesn't lead to abuse) although Hollywood may be more.. susceptible to such. More knowledge on how such things start and what they may look like and how best to break them down.
They didn't deserved an oscar (Mira, Gwyneth, Jennifer), other actresses nominated where better actors in better films. But all hollywood is a businnes and arranged. This doesn't surprise me at all. This has been going on for ages.
Its russia's fault apparently
Weinstein's mother was a demanding perfectionist who frequently criticized him, and this may have contributed to his need for control and power in his relationships with women. However, it is important to note that many people who have difficult childhoods do not become sexual predators, and Weinstein is ultimately responsible for his own actions.
Wow, I just realized that he made most of the movies I always thought sucked.
TS66
gangs of new york was good
mainly becoz of daniel day lewis
lotr
Okay then so I take it these actresses who are claiming to be victims will do the honourable thing and return their Oscars? I wonder how many of these actresses knowingly engaged in sexual favours in return for fame. So sad n pathetic.
Gwyneth Paltrow was "the Queen of Miramax" (Matt Damon) for years, and was already a rising film star and well off - and in a relationship with Brad Pitt, later Ben Affleck. A victim? Or she was a woman with a lot of options who had a very profitable relationship?
Harvey made her the image of Muramax, got her an Oscar and movie roles. You dobt get these stuff given to you for free. There is a price for that
I wonder how many of his victims are underage and can't come forward even to their parents??
DDL winning Oscar shouldn’t be taken into account because in any perfect world he would’ve won 4
They just obliged to his advances to become famous. so its a win win situation. Why play the victim today?
Flo R ---- Because they'd rather be seen as poor, brave victims than greedy, materialistic whores.
I realise this is a very serious topic, but I've been replaying 1:24 so many times now
I'm damn sure Jennifer Lawrence owes her career to him.
I hope people like him will be exposed in every field. I'm sure there are many others not only in the cinema industry...what about fashion, for example?
Mmm weird isnt, he has the Midas Touch, but turned the other way cuz he made them bathe in gold, now, they bash him.
Why there are people in the comments who accuse these women who made them selves rich and famous and powerful enough which means NOW SAFE enough to come forward to tell the truth about the most powerful abusive man in their industry where they couldn't have told earlier - due to the obvious reason?
Jewish masters
What a disgrace. More disgraceful, all who knew & remained silent. They're definitely more to come.
God is a jealous god, should have humbled ur self Harvey.
A few years ago, at the time of "The Help", African American actress, Viola Davis was well on her way to becoming ONLY the second black actress in the history of the Oscars, to win the Best Actress Oscar. After all, she had just won "The Actor" for Best Actress, at the Screen Actors Guild Awards. Then, during the voting period, the media started to print the idea that black actresses were only nominated for playing maids, household help or inferior parts. It raised a few eyebrows. In tandem with that, the media started a lot of "Meryl Streep won only 1 Best Actress Oscar in the last 30 years" items. The voters denied the Oscar to Davis and gave it to Streep. Had they only given it some thought, they'd have come to the right conclusion: Meryl Streep, if she won, would have more Best Actress Oscars than ALL of the black actresses in Hollywood history, COMBINED!
Oh please! It is a well known fact that women who go into that profession are women of low moral character. Drifters, grifters, misfits, miscreants, trading on their looks and their sexuality. .....Please do not waste the taxpayer money going after this guy. If you charge him with a sex crime, he will reveal every sexual encounter that these women of low moral character have ever had, and the jury will find those women as flawed witnesses. Go home girls. You knew what you were getting into when you wanted to be in this field...
seriously?
A class victim blaming, I bet you pity the guy too?
Eva Cope But he makes a valid point. Hollywood is known for this for many decades...anyone denying this is selling something.
In that thumbnail it did look like Gwyneth wanted to stand far away from him. She was practically leaning on the guy on the other side!!!
Harvey Weinstein and Donald Trump....brother's from different mother's.
Connie Waisanen - Nobody has proved anything about Trump. For you to compare the 2 is just stupid. Your hate is showing.
Your ignorance is showing....No one has proven anything about Harvey Weinstein either, but we're all pretty convinced he's guilty. (See how that works son?)
Connie Waisanen - Lmao! Everybody knows Harvey is guilty. He's even been recorded talking to a girl in a plain and simple sexual manner. All you and your cronies have on Trump is a conversation with him and another guy. Tking about doing something to a 3rd person isn't the same as doing it. There is more proof against Bill & Hillary with regards to rape than there is against President Trump. See how that works, hunny?
No comparison at all. Seriously.
HardRockMiner agree.
They all went along with it. How's about them giving all the money they made back? Certainly not defending him, Harvey is just one of many.
It's just Jew being Jew being Jews. Jewish inception
I never watch the Oscars and I considered most movies awarded overrated. I knew they were rigged.
