OSCAR 2017

Deci din ce am citit eu de aici e vorba de "sexual harassment".

 

The women who accused Affleck of sexual harassment worked for him on the critically derided Joaquin Phoenix mockumentary I’m Still Here in 2010. Affleck has described the film as a failed “passion project,” but his accusers had much darker things to say about what went on behind the scenes. Producer Amanda White and cinematographer Magdalena Gorka sued Affleck for $2 million and $2.25 million, respectively, alleging that Affleck verbally and physically harassed them throughout filming. At the time, Affleck was married to Summer Phoenix, Joaquin’s sister.

In her complaint, White claimed that Affleck constantly discussed his “sexual exploits” during filming, and that at one point, he directed another crew member to show her his penis, despite her objections. White also alleged that Affleck once attempted to get her to stay in a hotel room with him, and when she said no, he “grabbed her in a hostile manner in an effort to intimidate her into complying.”

Gorka described similar behavior in her complaint, including a disturbing incident in which Affleck allegedly crawled into bed with her while she was sleeping. The crew was staying at Affleck’s apartment in New York after a long night of shooting, Gorka said, and Affleck told her she could sleep in his bedroom, while he slept on the couch. According to her complaint, Gorka woke up that night to find Affleck “lying in bed next to her.” He had entered the room while she was sleeping, she said, and when she woke up, “he had his arm around her, was caressing her back, his face was within inches of hers and his breath reeked of alcohol.” When she asked him to leave the room, he got angry. Gorka called her treatment on set “the most traumatizing of her career.”

When White and Gorka filed their lawsuits in 2010, Affleck denied all of the allegations and threatened to countersue. He quickly agreed to mediation, however, and settled both suits for undisclosed amounts. Earlier this year, he quietly separated from his wife. When asked about the allegations now, Affleck describes them as baseless attacks on his family. He told the Times that he does not feel responsibility for what happened, and that “it was settled to the satisfaction of all. I was hurt and upset — I am sure all were — but I am over it.” To Variety, he characterized the lawsuits this way: “People say whatever they want.”

Am auzit azi la radio ca cica personajul este un "partener" la PWH ...si ca toata ceremonia a stat pe Twitter si a pus poze cu el si castigatorii ...

 

Va dati seama ca daca e partener, nu o sa i se întâmple nimic. 

 

Si a fost concediat si el si duduia aia cu care era.

[antmil]

Nu sint concediati…doar ca nu ii mai lasa la Oscaruri:

 

A PwC spokesman said Wednesday that Cullinan and Ruiz were still employed as partners at the accounting firm, which had earlier taken full responsibility for the gaffe that stunned the Dolby Theatre crowd in Hollywood and a television audience worldwide.

Ah, la documentare a luat ala "O.J. made in America" pe care l-am vazut si este fenomenal. Dureaza 5 ore, adica are 5 episoade si explica in detaliu cum a fost posibil ca o crima atat de evidentă sa rămână nepedepsita ...vi-l recomand, defineste America cu problemele ei, a meritat Oscarul din plin.

 

Incerc sa vad documentarul asta dar e plictisitor de numa. E impartit in 3 parti, incerc sa trec de prima parte in care el joaca fotbal american. De ce oare fotbalul american se numeste footbal? Cind nimeni nu atinge mingea cu piciorul? Iar fotbalul adevarat in care se da intr-una cu piciorul in minge se numeste soccer! Made in America! [batcap]

La noi au spus ca au fost concediati. Am auzit la stirile de dimineata! Fake news! [:-)))]

[antmil]

Partenerii nu pot fi concediati. Este complet alta procedura (complicat - board of directors, trebuie rambursata portia de equity in companie).

Imi pierd rabdarea cu documentarul asta. Nu stiu de ce e bagat un caz a lui Rodney King in chestia asta. Care e legatura cu OJ Simson?
