Director Terry Gilliam stirs up storm: "MeToo is a witch hunt"

Director Terry Gilliam provokes a stir after an interview with the British Independent called MeToo a "witch hunt", claiming that some of the women who complained that producer and director Harvey Weinstein sexually assaulted them were "graduates who made decisions". He also repeatedly described himself as a "black lesbian."

The 79-year-old Gilliam signed, among other things, the films "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," "Fisher King" and "12 Monkeys." In an interview, which was held to promote his latest film "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote," said of the MeToo movement: "I want people to take responsibility and not just point to someone else and say 'You ruined my life.' MeToo is a witch hunt."

In addition, he said of Harvey Weinstein: "When you have power you take no responsibility for exploiting others. You enjoy the power. That's how it works in reality." And about the women who claimed sexual harassment from the producer, he said: "They were ambitious graduates ... There were many victims in Weinstein's life, and I feel sympathy for them, but Hollywood is full of mature ambitious people and they make their decisions."

Remember, in 2017, over 100 women accused Weinstein of rape, assault, and sexual harassment over a period of three decades. Following the affair, the MeToo campaign grew. Following the charges, he was fired from Weinstein and expelled from the American Film Academy. In 2018, he was arrested in New York and charged with rape and other sex offenses, released on bail and is on trial. Weinstein denied being ascribed to him.
