She didnt complain about Weinstein all this time, when she was already very wealthy.

She shut up, knowing all this, why?

Weinstein still had a lot of power and influence at the time. I think a lot of the actresses didn’t want to hurt their careers. Now it isn’t a bad career move to go after Weinstein.

She shut up, knowing all this, why?

I'm going to break what what I've previously (and repeatedly...) written on this topic with a simple question:

How many TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars did Uma Thurman make starring in films that Weinstein's company funded even after Weinstein allegedly had his way with her as she claims?

How angry and ashamed did she actually feel, profiting off of what happened to her? She starred in Pulp Fiction and what, three Kill Bill movies? Can't be too ashamed and angry profiting from those very popular and high box office grossing movies like that.

Having said that: Women who've been sexually abused typically don't keep relationships with their abusers like Uma Thurman did with Harvey Weinstein. A woman who's been abused as she claims wouldn't profit from the poisoned fruit of that "relationship." The overwhelming majority of women would run the other way.

I personally think Uma Thurman is one of the fake #MeToo myself and her speaking out not only lacks credibility IMO, she's damaging the real victims of sexual abuse. You simply cannot profit from an abusive situation like this and have any credibility, IMO.

It is mean and churlish to sneer at women for not saying something at the time. It would have been like a slave complaining about low pay before 1861—"what are those confounded darkies talking about?" The time wasn't right; punishments and banishments and harsh persecutions by attorneys were what would have happened. There was no Twitter when she was in Kill Bill; no social media, no place to take those complaints and have them receive support or even be taken seriously. Would you like it if you spent years preparing for a career and had it all taken away from you because you didn't want your boss to insert his penis into one or more of your orifices?
