Director Terry Gilliam is speaking out against the #MeToo movement, saying that in Hollywood, mob rule takes over; the mob is out there, they are carrying their torches and they are going to burn down Frankensteins castle. In a an interview with AFP on Friday, the filmmaker, a member of the comedy group Monty Python, specifically went after Harvey Weinsteins alleged victims, and said, Harvey opened the door for a few people, a night with Harvey thats the price you pay.
It is a world of victims. I think some people did very well out of meeting with Harvey and others didnt, he added. The ones who did, knew what they were doing. These are adults...
The Brazil and 12 Monkeys director also defended Matt Damon, who received public backlash in January for suggesting there were levels of sexual harassment, saying that touching someones butt is different than rape...
Despite describing the #MeToo movement as simplistic and silly, he still said Weinstein was a monster...
A British citizen, the director also took jabs at Trump in the interview...

He is old and not that active, though. He'll get a pass.
And Matt Damon is still a jerk even though he is right on the point about harassment.
the real reason matt damon is going to austrailia... his sexual harassment case.
Mr. Gilliam just painted a huge bulls-eye on his a**.
That makes sense. He might be getting away after covering for Weinstein.
Collectives - R - Us are always about the gang/mob...and yes they want to rule over you.
Biggles. Ha,ha Biggles.
Gilliam renounced his US citizenship years ago for reasons that remain murky. For likewise mysterious reasons he is apparently limited to a 30-day stay when he comes to the U.S. (the typical British Subject can stay for up to six months).
Why’d you do that to me? You put that name out there....Matt do do Damon. I was eating. lol
Put her in the comfy chair.
So has the church of Political Correctness declared anathema on him and excommunicated him as a heretic yet?
Sorry Terry. You helped create this monster with all the Lib sanctimony that you directed at conservatives and those “stuffy” Christians who you mocked. Now the monster is turning on your buddies in the entertainment industry and you want it to stop. That’s not the way it works. The monster won’t stop until everyone is dead.
Harvey opened the door for a few people, a night with Harvey thats the price you pay.
I wonder if men would speak so cavalierly if that was the price THEY had to pay for a job in Hollywood!
How do you know they didnt?
Unfortunately, it is probably because he’s got skeletons in his closet - rather than any ethical stand.
I read an interview with former Western Film star, Lash LaRue, a number of years ago. The interviewer asked him what happened to his film career, since it seemed that he dropped off the radar quite suddenly.
LaRue stated that he had refused to let Hollywood BigShots bugger him (literally). He said that if you wanted to make it big in Hoolywood, and then keep your status, you had to submit to the powerful; men had to submit, as well as women.
He refused and that ended his career.
At least that was his story.
Now they're crying in their beer... wine... stash or whatever...
Hey lefties - we don't care about your sluts... or victims or thugs... just leave the rest of us alone. Oh and take your ‘art’ and shove it. Don't worry - Deep State criminals will back you... and we'll support making California it's very own hellholes. Yep it's very own country - a place of predatory ‘elites’ and very poor peasants - as long as you take the illegals... all of em.
In twelve years uber poor Californians will be trying to break into the United States so one condition is you'll have a build a Wall - - but then it's all yours.
Go for it left-wing monsters... you're very own hellhole is within reach.
