Werewolf, no contest. That transformation scene still stands up today. The pain and anguish of turning. Nothing sexy about it. Just raw intense cinema magic.
So if she was 3 at the time and said yes it wouldn’t be rape either?
Look at this from her point of view. For 40 years she’s been hounded as the victim of a rape by a heralded director. He’s never faced his punishment for he did, and this that and the other media outlet brings it up constantly and has done for 4 decades. She wants it to end, and says things like he didn’t do it, or just let him off with it etc etc.
He admitted it so he did it, end of script.
Roman Polanski (rape of a 13 year old girl and maybe at least two others)is still making movies. Victor salva (rape of a 12 year old boy. Video of him raping the boy and countless pictures of child porn) is still making movies.
In a 1999 interview, Salva told San Jose Mercury News that, “I think [studio execs] saying, ‘He’ll never work again’ was all for show. My God, if they were to take the [arrest] records of every filmmaker or actor, they’d have to shut this town down… Let’s face it, anybody can work here who makes money.”
Spacey is nothing like these scum. Still have doubts he can make a come back?
If there was still rental stores, you’d find his movies littered throughout the obscure straight to video section.
Growing up in the uk I like a great many others watched a great many children’s tv presenters in my youth. Others would have been guests and what not on many many tv shows aimed at kids. When Saville died and stories started it was a shock to everyone. Then other names started to drop. Then another and another. By the time it was all over my generation as well as the ones that came before and after mine found out they had been getting entertained by some of the worst people on the planet. Child predators who for many many decades had abused countless children.
Weinstein is the USAs Saville. He will be the one that unleashes the torrent of stories about what’s really going on in Hollywood. I mean, we’ve all know it. We’ve seen the movies themselves show what big Hollywood producers are like. Something tells me that by the time this is all over there will be more than a few classic movies no one will be able to watch again without thinking about the horrible stuff that went on behind the scenes.
I dint think you watch this show. You couldn’t miss as much as you have if you did. Mick is all about number 1. Ray is all about control. Ray sees mick for what he is and everyone else just kinda goes with it in much the way you are. Ray does horrible things for horrible people to benefit is family, bu he’s a severely damaged person who does stupid things because he’s self destructive as he blames himself for the things that have happened to him, like being raped as a boy. He hurts those around him because he is in pain and subconsciously hates himself. Mick hurts those around him because he doesn’t care about the consequences of actions. All he cares about is getting what he wants.
Mick hinted that his father was abusive, which goes someway to explaining why he is the way he is. In the end they both damaged, and even if you think one is no better than the other, they don’t see it that way. Who ever sees themselves as the villain of their own story?
It looked bad, so didn’t download it. You know something is a real stinker when you can’t even give it away lol.
He looks guilty, that’s good enough for me! String him up!
In other words, he put out and spacey didn’t help him with his career. Now it’s revenge time.
The daily mail AND an anonymous source? Must be true.......
Got any proof of that, or just repeating internet nonsense?
Everyone got bored of Harvey, now they need a new horse to beat to death. Spacey as far what’s been said so far is guilty of being overly aggressive in his perusing of men. The rapp thing, IMO, is little more the poor judgment of drunk 20 something. Whatever it was we won’t know. If he is into jailbait, there won’t be just one and we will know then.
As for his aggressive and sleazy behaviour, sure it’s not right, but claims of ptsd because someone came on to you? Gimme a break. Seems everyone wants be a victim these days.
Thats trailers for you these days. They dont wet the appetite so much as spoil the dinner.
Eh, so you didnt fancy her. Cool. But you were under no obligation to do anything. You made no promises to her husband, she did. Its not your obligation to see her follow her vows. She is the only one who is under any obligation.
You can say you wouldnt for many reasons, but none of them are an obligation. Morally you wouldnt be doing anything wrong. It maybe against your personal ethics, but other peoples relationships arent your responsibility.
Who’s “they”?
Why? They didnt make any promises? Its the responsibility of those in the marriage not to cheat. No one else made any commitments, and its not anyone elses job to police other peoples marriages.
You cant wreck a home unless you do it by force. If the home gets wrecked it because of the homeowners.
See that, I can believe. Because thats what its sounded like so far. Hes aggressive, sleazy, etc. Its that thing that a lot of others are saying is the part I find odd. Most child/young adult abusers dont just do it once. So Im of the opinion that in the case of rapp, it was drunken stupidity rather than a sexual preference for underage men.
Maybe Im wrong, just dont see it from what Ive seen so far. Everything else, yes. That, no. Time will tell.
You can blame the great many who falsely accuse for that. I was falsely accused and people like you treated me like shit even after she admitted she was lying. Take a breath and remember that there might be an innocent person on the end of your vicious judgment. And I’m speaking in general not on just this.
Actually people are saying that. People are saying he ps a child molester, a rapist, an abuser. As bad as Jimmy Saville, that type of stuff.
From everything I’ve heard, and you’re right I’ve heard or read everything, but from everything that’s been said spacey is as you say overly aggressive in his approach of people sexually. And while I’ll agree that’s not right, it doesn’t rise to the levels of vile that’s been produced by the internet.
And again, I say I wasn’t there and I don’t know the man. Either of them. And so I won’t believe either of them on just their words. You say you’re in that circle so you’ll know more stories than me. So I’ll ask if the stories you heard were about underage boys or just that he’s sleazy and sexually aggressive?
Who did he molest? Rapp said he made a sexual advance and stopped when rapp said no. That’s not molestation. Be better than that,
I’m not making excuses, I’m just not losing my mind over something that was on the word of one guy. People make silly mistakes, no need to burn the guy at the cross for an ill advised pass. Trump was boasting about grabbing women and no one seems to care, but spacey hits on people overly aggressively and he’s as bad as Jimmy Saville? No chance.
As for the age of consent the law has changed over the years and has even been widely misrepresented in the media. For example California has had an age of consent at 18 for almost 100 years. But during the 70s and 80s it was thought to be much younger than that by a vast majority of the general public because of the media. There was no internet to check up on that. So you think you know the law why wuojld you bother looking at it to be sure?
As was previously mentioned it was a different time with different attitudes. Go back further to 1850 and you’ll find the age of consent was in between 7 and 10. That’s horrific, but should we really judge people in a different time? How will people judge us 100 years from now?
The point is that nothing is ever as black and white as these witch hunts make out. It’s the crime you hate, not the person. Once you know for a fact then go nuts. Until you know all the facts you’re little more than a mob ready to burn a woman at the stake on the say so of one person. Is that who we all are? Do we really care so little for people that we’ll condemn them on just an accusation?
