The abuse of women in Hollywood is 'systemic' says Michelle Pfieffer
Michelle Pfieffer has spoken out this morning in relation to the Harvey Weinstein scandal. The actress appeared on the BBC's Andrew Marr show with Olivia Colman to promote their new film, Murder on the Orient Express, and was asked for her thoughts on the much talked about topic of abuse and control in Hollywood.
"I've never worked with Harvey," she said, "I've had some experiences - I have to say since this has all come out. There really hasn't been one women I've spoken to that hasn't had an experience. It just goes to show you how systemic the problem is."
She added, "I know that I'm having conversations with women I've known my whole life and we've never discussed this, and it's all coming out."
Marr then asked if Pfieffer believed the revelations would change the atmosphere for young women coming into the industry.
"There's a lot of reflection going on with men and women," she responded. "Even I am thinking, where is that line between 'oh I got hit on' and I was inappropriately..."
"Is it about power?" Marr interjected.
"I think when you're in a position of power, and you're in a position to intimidate someone, then it becomes an issue," said Pfieffer. Her co-star Colman then pointed out that a lot of the women that have come forward with allegations of assault are in their early twenties. "They're younger, they're purposefully targeted," said Colman.
