Has nothing to do with money or being big now... Rose McGowan in particular had spoken out about being assaulted by a studio head but didn't name names well over 1-3 years ago at the least. He has been rich for years, and let's not victim blame the women who came forward when many actors have come forward and said that yes that is how Weinstein is. Hollywood is all about the good old boys club. Weinstein didn't make anyone a star though lol. He's just a studio head, the actors/actresses have to be good and/or attractive to make it big themselves. 

I'm just glad it's not the popular opinion on this topic to shift to "why NOW" because this is why victims never come forward because somehow there's always something fishy about it and if it's such a big name no one will believe you. I just wish these women peace of mind and for more behavior like this in Hollywood to be called out. Wish Polanski and Allen would go down next.

Thanks for speaking out on it @nefilim and for being supportive of the victims and condemning the men who abuse their power in Hollywood. Still weird to me that Allen and Polanski still walk freely and make movies with no issues considering their histories ?

Oh I'm not condoning his actions, especially the accounts given by Asia Argento, Rose and Mira Sorvino. He's a piece of dirt and will most likely flee to Europe like Roman where he can't be touched as there does seem to be enough evidence for some jail time. Yes Harvey did make many stars, for over 30 years him, and Don Simpson before him had enough power to make or break a persons career, whether they had talent or not. He was wise often in his choices and basically invented US indie cinema. Studios all refused Tarantino, it was Harvey that opened the door, same with Kevin Smith, neither would be here today making movies without him. I think thats why many won't or haven't spoken out about him, hes made many people both male and female exceptionally rich and famous. He gave chances to many people that the other studios had all passed on, he saw the talent where others didn't, unfortunately we now know for many it came at a cost. Most studio heads take no part in launching films, they have teams for that, he completely changed all that by being hands on in every level of production, often being on set as much as the producer, hes thanked more times than anyone else at the Oscars, thats a level of power basically no one in Hollywood has had since the 30's. The women that have now stepped forward are beyond brave to do so, but as many reports suggest it was the right time, as his career is winding down. If he was still at the top this all most likely wouldn't have seen the light of day

We will see changes within Hollywood, and they are already happening with people like Amy Pascal running Sony etc. Harvey was one of last bastions of old Hollywood and that has started to change. Its one of the main reasons hes finally being outed. He won't be the last either. UK had their clear out over the last few years in the media, now its the US's turn. Expect to see Eastwood, Arnie, Jack Nicolson and many others outed for sexual harrassment. The one no one seems to be able to get rid of though is Woody, and its well known hes a paedo
