  • After being cleared of sexual assault, the actor is out to save his career.
    How long before Kevin Spacey is allowed to be uncancelled? Seriously, writes Allison Pearson. It has been almost seven years since Spacey had the leper’s bell hung around his neck. Is it to be a life sentence or are the millions who relish this great actor’s performances to be allowed to see him back where he belongs, on stage and screen?

    He is a hugely talented guy and we are all at a loss of him not being there.
    More importantly the courts override public opinion and having been exonerated he should be allowed to proceed without judgement with his professional life. No doubt he has learned and will be much more careful in how he conducts his private life. But please give him a chance and let him move on.

      Yes. It's mostly about money, though, no noble intentions. Corporations are afraid to lose money so they fire people and reshoot scenes in movies. They would even put a finished film on ice just because Spacey acted in it. That means the work of thousands of crew members was for nothing. I hope that the Gore Vidal biopic will be finally released.

      I watched the documentary last week only because he has been one of my favorite actors. I’m reading all the comments of love and support and the fact that this was a really good interview. She did it exactly the way it should be done.
      But I’m still having a hard time accepting that these men that seemed so vulnerable and so authentic and real and had the same sense of shame and embarrassment I’ve seen with women that have been through the same experiences that I’ve never seen before with men. I know they are raised not to cry or not to be emotional and I thought they were being very vulnerable and real. I love Kevin but I’m sorry I do believe the men in that documentary. I know I’m probably the only one that’s going to say this but I did not feel that they were lying. What would be the agenda of going up into the public forum and share their experiences?

      ''very tough questions''? Which were they? She obviously was sympathetic to Spacey from the get go and her questions reflected that. Ms Pearson said at one time that nothing that Spacey was accused of was a crime in law. Since when has masturbating in a cinema, a public place, not been a crime? Are US citizens allowed to do that?

    What people seem to ignore is that his accusers saw a cash cow and with all the panic around MeToo, they saw easy money.
    Money motivates people to do all sorts of evil things. Money motivates people to lie.
    He was found not guilty. All these people saying "Not guilty in the court of law, but he's still guilty" are idiots. The court of law exists for a reason. Justice must be objective and logical. Kangaroo courts do not because mobs of idiots can't be trusted to be logical or objective. They're driven by emotions and logical fallacies, fuelled by ignorance of actual evidence.
    Kevin Spacey deserves an apology from Hollywood.

I personally hope he gets back to what he does best: great acting in great roles. My fav movie of all time is American Beauty, where I 1st saw him fully. Then in HOCards..incredible. He said he peace, says where he went wrong…hopefully he can move forward with his career.

    I watched the documentary last week only because he has used to be one of my favorite actors. I’m reading all the comments of love and support and the fact that this was a really good interview. She did it exactly the way it should be done.
    But I’m still having a hard time accepting that these men that seemed so vulnerable and so authentic and real and had the same sense of shame and embarrassment I’ve seen with women that have been through the same experiences that I’ve never seen before with men. I know they are raised not to cry or not to be emotional and I thought they were being very vulnerable and real. I do believe the men in that documentary. I know I’m probably the only one that’s going to say this but I did not feel that they were lying.
    What would be the agenda of going up into the public forum and share their experiences?

    I believe Mr. Spacey. I always have. I reached out to him in his darkest hour. His Masterclass on Acting is a must have. The man is passionate about acting. He supported and helped so many. Anyone can be targeted or lied about and zeroed out. We live in Twitter times and viral Video bloodshed. The people watching from the other side of the red ropes now try to kick, trip those on the red carpet. Why? Why do some people randomly attack a stranger? Why do other's make false claims just to get noticed? Who can explain away the actions of a sad desperate or deranged group of people? Who can understand a situation that might have behind the scenes agendas, revenge factors or just no reason what-so-ever. Again, if it's a person, a rival or a studio with a past vendetta or simple people with mental issues how can sense be made of it. Sometimes it's just a wave or fab. So many times. I have seen one-time friends, confess to me, shame they have for false accusations they've made against other friends, against their X's, against police or a landlord or a boss. I used to ask why they did it. They were pissed, rejected, scorned, felt they were disrespected, improperly represented, over-charged, dismissed abruptly - so many reasons that just do not justify the act of using deception and lies to ruin another human being.

    There should be consequences in law for people who make spurious accusations that are subsequently dismissed in court. If there are no consequences we will continue to see persistent persecution like this.

      I was wondering about that too. What about anti-defamation suit like Depp did against Amber Heard? I think the person has to bring a lawsuit against the accused like slander. If it causes someone to lose ability to earn their living, destroy their reputation all due to lies. Idk if Spacey would go that route.

      “Not guilty” in court doesn’t mean innocent. Evidence of predator behavior is very difficult to prove with physical evidence.
      Spacey can go f right off

      A dismissal doesn't make it not true though, courts aren't about the truth, courts are about being the best liar and "proving" those lies with documentation

    I never thought he was guilty of the things he was accused of. Was he perfect? No. Was he tried by public opinion without facts? Yes.

    I think he is guilty of all that he was accused of. But , he has been cleared in two courts of law. So he needs to be accepted back in Hollywood . He is a very talented actor who has a right , now , to pursue his expertise like any human being who was declared by a court.

    Just bring him back. The film industry misses talent like his. He is a brave human being, facing unjust challenges caused by evil and greedy people.
    We have a 7 year lag on art that he could have produced, acted, created. Let him catch up. Let us all enjoy some good acting.

      It’s like that scene at the end of A Face in the Crowd. He’ll be big again, but it won’t ever be like before. He’ll be a working actor. He’ll be making films for the love of it, knowing they’ll most likely end up on VOD.
