But cancel culture!!1

Fucking fuckers.

Also he must've fucking known he had this project in the pipeline when complaining to Olivia how he was a pariah and whatnot.

The source also boasts that this "comeback" includes

His other upcoming projects include Abel Ferrara’s 2022 Venice title Padre Pio and Dito Montiel’s crime drama After Exile.

So bro hasn't been hurting for work at all.

[celja]

Man, fuck him.

[bellwetherr]

i am so fucking sick of hearing about how abuse allegations ~*~*~rUiN MEn'S LiVEs!!! ~*~*~

like, WHERE. yes, Weinstein's in jail. yes, R Kelly is in jail. but that's after LITERAL DECADES of getting away with this shit. everyone else gets a redemption arc with cutesy award show appearances and the industry welcoming them back with open arms. i'm so tired. so tired.

[sugarshocks]

same!!! it's so exhausting and frustrating! and speaking of weinstein, didn't he get tossed out by his own brother and business partners after he became too much of a liability? and as you said, it happened after literal decades of getting away with it. same with dept, really, except he managed to get away mostly unscathed (hopefully not for long). meanwhile, look at what happens to the women who decide to come forward. they are the ones that end up paying the price for the actions of a random waste of air man who wasn't capable to keep it in his pants. but yeah, men have it soooo hard nowadays...

[qween_tartii]

yeah he stopped making money so they stopped covering for his ass. it was nothing to do with justice or protecting women from a predator. #MeToo needed a high profile scalp and he was it. since then it's all been backlash.

[sugarshocks]

exactly! and i feel like this past year (probably longer than that lbr) men have been doing everything they can to "take back their power" and punish women for daring to speak up for themselves.

I think the worst part (imho) is that I don’t think it’s a matter of people like FFC not believing Twigs or that Shia is abusive and dangerous. I think FFC believes it fully, since Shia is always toeing the line of admitting to everything, he just doesn’t give a shit.

[jearsinsears]

Of course cos cancel culture actually applies to survivors/victims not abusers.
I'm tired.

Francis Ford Coppola has gone out of his way to personally vouch for and fund the career of a convicted child molester after his release from prison - director Victor Salva (Jeepers Creepers series), who molested a 12-yr-old actor & was also in possession of CSA materials.

He's certainly not losing sleep over giving Shia this opportunity.

Truly disgusting

[_natsumi_]

Coppola is fucking disgusting . It rumored the he tried to sue the child that was abused
