Accountability in Entertainment • Page 76

Oh god it’s worse in context, he compared it to the Scarlet Letter.

 

Imagine just not being cancelled and then thinking “hm, I wanna go to bat for Woody Allen”

I have no doubt a lot of men in the industry feel that way, but to document it is absurd

 

especially when you're a director whose profile is growing

 

'Blue Is The Warmest Colour' Director Accused Of Plying Actors With Alcohol Until They Performed Unsimulated Sex In New Cannes Film

It’s so long overdue for this dude to be done.

 

I think it was Elrich's review of that film I read, and yaaaaa extremely unsurprising to hear that's what probably happened on set.

 

not a good look for Lena Waithe

 

That really sucks.

 

Gross

 

Really gross that Mollie, who was 12 or 13 at the time, wouldn't give him the benefit of a doubt that maybe there was more going on behind the scenes than she realized.

 

Yeah like how would she even know

 

at the very least Mollie didn't know Harold Ramis was her dad until she was a teenager

 

What?

 

Do I even want to know why this is trending right now?

 

yeah her half sister mentioned it in a book last year it's wild
Mollie Heckerling revealed as Harold Ramis' daughter in new book

 

I always feel bad for the children of abusers. It must be so hard to grapple with and they prob feel pressured to say something but I wish they just wouldn't say anything at all.

I have a good friend whose dad was accused of rape and she's constantly torn up by the accusations and has been self medicating as a result and it's tragic seeing her spiral down. Obv not as much as it is for the survivor, but idk I wish children of abusers would either speak out or stay quiet. I've read too many stories of awful rapists and murderers who had normal kids and a family and they had no idea. Or at the least be like... I love them and they're great to me but idk anything outside of that and cannot comment.

 

no not Wallace Shawn and Gina Gershon

 

I remember Wallace saying some really disappointing stuff not that long ago, so I’m not particularly surprised there. Christoph is a bigger disappointment for me personally, even though he’s worked with problematic people in the past. This is a huge bummer.

 

Old white people working with Woody Allen - not inconceivable.

Max Landis continues to be a piece of shit

 

Is that the woman from Birdemic? Never knew they dated. Yes, Max Landis is truly a top tier piece of shit in a world of several shit levels.

 

I thought everyone in birdemic were removed from this earthly realm.

But seriously fuck Landis and he needs to go away forever.

 

She was on the HDTGM episode on Birdemic, had a really fun, aware take on the movie, seemed like a really cool person.

 

I’ll have to check it out! I would imagine anyone involved in a low budget project like that would have some self awareness
