I’ll back them when they go after all ‘the women’ who DID go along to get along in their careers. If ‘women’ stopped doing that it would end. Blame for the state of affairs is other women who play their game.
That would be a hoot and a half. There would be very few left. And, I doubt it was all “go along to get along”. I imagine there were plenty of offers.
People like Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, Laura Dern, Jennifer Anniston, Dakota Johnson (irony, I know), Angelina Jolie and so many others, never had to worry about being pressured. They have powerful people in their corners.
That is why the Mira Sorvino story is weird.
Some actors/actresses may get a kick out of the power play too. Who is to say?
Hollywood is full of hypocrites, as are many places. Hearing Melissa Gilbert say that Polanski’s rape victim was on her mother not the assailant opened my eyes to how delusional these people are. It’s on a youtube video where they were talking about Polanski on the View (blech!)
Such a different time. Hitchcock was known for his type. People dealt with it. Word got out, actresses prepared or declined or whatever. I know there are more. I just enjoy his work. I do not think he is a god.
The bottom line is that none of these people care one whit about anyone being harassed, assaulted, insulted, intimidated or anything close. They want to be included in the “cool kids” club.
