Weinstein (full film) | FRONTLINE – Blog

Keron Granger
It’s really scary the amount of power this guy had in Hollywood. It’s also pretty sad that the actresses who turned him down just got blacklisted for doing the right thing.

I am glad that this bully and pervert was brought to justice. Let’s not ignore the fact that powerful people are enabled in every walk of life and therefore, getaway with various forms of power-based abuse.
Ms. Gregoria
The fact that we get free documentaries on YouTube by FRONTLINE PBS is truly a gift. 👍

Harvey probably would have got away with it if he wasn’t so overbearing and insistent. Think about it, why is Harvey the only big name producer that’s been taken down? There HAS to be others, Harvey was probably the only one that was egregious with his propositions.

It’s such a dark place, to realize that a person has the ability to make or break your career, and he wants sexual gratification, super awkward and exploitative. Of course, telling someone NO and walking away is one way to deal with it. It seems like endless legitimate sexual harassment cases. But no one was physically forced to do anything so not assault or rape? I guess there’s a lot of grey areas for classification and I’m no expert. Seems like there was absurd amount of cases to have stopped this earlier. The other legitimate option is that one could do whatever the propositioner wants and get gainful employment in a shameful harmful manner. Do we get to hear from the women who chose this? What’s their story? Obviously this had worked for Weinstein enough times.

This type of behavior doesn’t exist just in the media, it happens everywhere males in power and authority can misuse and exploit vulnerable women or vulnerable men in need of sexual gratification and or power. It was interesting to note that his insecurities lead him to believe he could not get sex any other way. Women today are lucky to have women before them that have stood up for the good of all to demand prosecution of these types of crimes. On the flip side, there are women who also have accused men of sexual harassment that are innocent. It is sad because it makes work relations tense for both sexes in a working environment where no one is sure what will be considered appropriate or inappropriate. Norms and rules are changing and overall, I think respect and body autonomy should be a basic human right free from pressure of verbal, sexual, or physical violence. We need not be woke about it and correct every male for innocent faux pas that are not meant as disrespect. A little humor and gentle reminders go along way as both sexes learn to show respect and be respected.

Interesting it took an Italian model to go to the police. Bravo to her!
Totally Looney
Unfortunately, I bet the DA’s office was right – in front of a jury, it’s really easy to victim-blame and point at any aspect of their life that is in the least bit salacious, and get a predatory man acquitted. The degree of widespread and brazen it takes to actually get into any sort of trouble is staggering.
E Magee
If he groomed himself, watched what he ate and worked out regularly, he wouldn’t have resorted to being a predator. With his wealth, he could have afforded a chef and personal trainer. He went the other way and ruined so many lives including his own. What a disgrace of a man.
Russell St.Martin
I don’t but that the regret of his enablers is genuine more than it’s just saving face to protect their careers as they did in the past with their silence. They’d do it all over again if they were told it would never come to light.
J. Cesar
It’s obvious that everyone knew, particularly the actresses. How could Gwyneth Paltrow say to Brad Pitt that she was abused by Weinstein, then publicly congratulate him for her award?
Chrissy Knows It All
I just love Rowan Farrow. What a smart and awesome man. Mia did a great job raising him. All these poor women.
Elizabeth Heichel
Karma comes for everyone! he should have been stopped sooner!!
TheTarrMan
When they make a movie out of this, they should get a really old Anton Chigurh to play the role.
Paligula
After 4 years they finally released it. It was just looking for this last night after watching the trailer. I just realized that that release the trailers first on YouTube then years later post the actual episode on a lot of their documentaries
Malek Alhyasat
“he believed he was going to be untouchable ” this is the problem
david haworth
I always just assumed that this type of thing was the norm in this business. Isn’t that was meant by the wink wink nudge nudge casting couch?
R.Haque
In real life..I know many such people…wandering freely, persons near and dear to them are enjoying their money…bring those near and dear criminals into justice as well…
Samantha B
Didn’t Gwenyth have a problem with Vanity Fair? Something about them doing a story without her ok. She was livid & emailed everyone not to speak to VF. I wonder if it was about this?
cbc
What about when Courtney love said “If Harvey Weinstein invites you to a private party in the Four Seasons, don’t go”

Man, I dig this narrator’s voice.

47:51 – If I’m ever in a position of unimaginable power, I’m going to be the nicest person ever to people.

The burning was produced in 1981, and the media reports was in 2017 …. more than 30 years, must be so many women became his victims.
ZMAN 420
This is going to be a good one! BEST DOCUMENTARIES 👍🏻
KHALED NYC
No one ask questions about his background. How powerful those people and how they think about others …….
Thomas Thomas
“We didn’t know….none of us knew….” Heard a lot of that at Nuremberg…….
david haworth
So many good movies! Especially early on.
Mister Sarajevo
I always thought Harvey Weinstein seemed like a real POS long before the allegations made headlines.
koko nana
This also reveals to us a society so obsessed with success, wealth and cult of celebrities.
Sandi Hill
Unless people stop seeing money & power as Godly there will always be another predator
Oh Lordy
I think, sadly, that this is just the tip of ice berg of the what’s going on behind Hollywood doors 😔
Samantha B
The shameful thing with QT is he was engaged to Mira Sorvino. Why didn’t he help her. Same with Rose McGowen. She was engaged to Robert Rodriguez
Alain Vosselman
I hope all civilized societies will find the courage to start dealing with all the sickos out there AND the enablers… surely there must be something that can be done.
Yulian Apostolov
Well…Maybe from his perspective there is no morality or immorality attached to attraction to anyone because no one can control who they’re attracted to at all, in other words, it’s not who he’re attracted to that’s either okay or not okay. It’s his behaviors and responding to that attraction that are either okay or not okay. Maybe he prefers to be referred as non-offending HAPs – he has an attraction “he didn’t ask for” and “would do anything to change. HAP, of course is Harrasment Attracted Person. It’s not a crime, it’s a disorder…

Kim Nicholson
Ronan Farrow is a hero
Kerry Marris
And he’s only one of an army of elites that know their above the law. And society let’s it happen.
Patrick Elfers
I have no doubt that the majority of the womens testimony is true. However I’d also be willing to bet 5-10% of them either made up their story or added fluff to them. A couple on here even said their career was ended. Maybe they just weren’t good actors and wanted a payday when the story came out🤷🏼‍♂️
Stuart Prentice
All those A list stars that thanked him at awards ceremonies. Like they didn’t know anything 😒
Dennis Barnes
Makes senses they release this close to the roe v wade Supreme Court decision! Either way it going to be a doozy
emily walker
Just by his looks…I would just have run….his dimena is a whole red flag

At a buffet, I personally sneak corn into the buffet so others can enjoy them. I hide 6 boiled corn ears in my jacket pockets. It is a joy for me to see other patrons of the establishment eat my corn thinking they were part of the buffet.

Miramax was aware. They need to be brought to justice.
Justin Franks
If cell phones existed back then, Harvey would be a whole lot more polite and still making bangin’ movies!
Creighton Cutts
So sad. So many people silenced by greed and power. Sorry for all the victims.

The “sacrifices” vs “assaults”. Power vs Less Powerful or the Power Less. It seems the desire for money and fame was an ugly variable.
Reckless Drivers
“Ooohh weeee!! Look what money make a bitch do” they sayyyy 🤦🏽‍♂️
Pizza Money
If you’re drunk and you’re not interested in someone maybe don’t go to their hotel room alone with them. Harvey’s approach to Zoey was disgusting but I mean really, Have some fucking sense
Ron Schutt
He was your guy the whole time. You all knew what he was doing and let it go on……. untill he was more trouble than he was worth.
Amazon
43:20 – Did he say he didn’t give it a lot of “thot”?
Coco Chanel

His taste in women ( select all ) this guy has no preference

At least, Elon Musk offers them a free Tesla. That’s even more suave than Harvey. I feel sorry for anyone whom knew that big, fat, and smelly hebe.

Harvey, Disney, PBS what do they all have in common? I will leave that up to you…. we all know. Everyone in Hollywood new, all in the circle new. Be a good little socialist and say nothing….

I watch old movies and think… Did this girl get hurt by him. We are all victims by unknowingly watching the movies of victimized women.
