Tarantino also mentioned that he’s tried calling Weinstein several times since all this news came to light, but hasn’t received a reply.
Fast-forward to now, Quentin Tarantino was “horrified” by the articles that came out about Harvey Weinstein’s alleged misconduct, not realizing how widespread it was.
Tarantino noted that Hollywood has been operating under a “Jim Crow-like system,” and he’s now calling for other powerful men who knew about what Weinstein was doing to admit as much and “vow to do better” for all women.
As it stands now, not only has Weinstein been fired from The Weinstein Company and expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, he is also the target of several criminal investigations, the most recent one from the Los Angeles Police Department.
