OLIVIA MUNN'S OPEN LETTER... re: Brett Ratner
www.indiewire.com/2017/12/olivia-munn-essay-sexual-harassment-abuse-brett-ratner-1201910174/
From the article: "According to Munn, she was asked to drop off food to Ratner’s trailer as a favor and when she entered she found the director not wearing any pants and “furiously masturbating.” She says he told at a later date that he ejaculated to her image on magazine covers."
Whoa now... that makes it sound different.
A) If she walked in on him then that's not sexual harassment. That's her walking in on a private moment, even if he was masturbating to a magazine cover of her.
B) If he made an awful terrible joke/comment about it afterwards then that makes him a dick and a jerk but not a sexual harasser. Maybe that was his immature way of coping with being embarrassed or making light of being walked in on while doing "that".
And I'll bet when he said that to her she laughed her ass off because I remember she had quite the crass sense of humor when her career was beginning. But now it's sexual harassment.
I'm not discounting her experience, but see how things are not so clear cut when you dig a bit deeper? Now the mans reputation is ruined which in turn will ruin his career and most likely his life. I'm not defending him, he probably is a jerk as described, but these accusations need to be tempered.
Its getting out of control. What happens when someone innocent is accused? He'll have no recourse.
