She Said

Maria Schrader, USA 2022, 135’
Polish premiere
Moonage Daydream The Son

„New York Times” reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor published the story that started the #MeToo movement. Sexual harassment, abuse, blackmail and cover-ups by Harvey Weinstein, the head of Miramax and The Weinstein Company, went on for decades.

The movie, written by Rebecca Lenkiewicz and directed by Maria Schrader (it’s based on the book of the same title by Times reporters Jodie Kantor and Megan Twohey), accomplishes this by tapping into something that was always an essential part the Weinstein saga, but one I’ve never experienced as vividly as I did watching “She Said”: the pervasive, unfathomable fear that ruled Harvey Weinstein’s victims.
