Vu Thu Phuong, actress from Vietnam : Weinstein offered to teach how to do sex scenes
News24xx.com - In the wake of the October 5 2017 New York Times report about sexual misconduct allegations by Harvey Weinstein, numerous women in the film industry have come with their experience of abuse by that Hollywood producer.
On Friday, a former of Vietnamese model and actress, Vu Thu Phuong, who her career was faded after a dispiriting experience on the 2010 Weinstein production Shanghai.
“I can’t be silent anymore. It’s time that I liberate myself. It’s time that I can explain about the Shanghai failure and why I shelved my ‘American dream’ as well as the contract with Weinstein’s film company.” she wrote in a Facebook post.
In 2008, the Weinstein Company offered Phuong a bilingual speaking role as a supporting character in the film. During production the scope of her part was scaled back, and in the final edit, so many of her scenes were omitted that her appearance onscreen hardly registered.
Crestfallen, she agreed to meet with Weinstein about the prospect of future work with the company.
“Everything suddenly turned dark when I saw Mr. Harvey Weinstein standing before me with only a towel around his waist and smiling,” she writes of their encounter.
Weinstein went on to intimate that the film he envisioned casting her in would require her to star in several sex scenes.
“I can teach you, don’t worry. Many stars have also been through this. Just treat this as necessary experiences so that you’ll have a stronger foundation in the future.” Weinstein allegedly told her
But, she spurned him, “thinking at the moment that if he were to rape me or kill me, would anybody find out and stop him?”
Chagrined by her reduced role and reeling from Weinstein's advances, she returned home to Vietnam.
“I decided that I didn’t want to sell myself to enter Hollywood,” she writes in her Facebook post.
“Weinstein should be punished for disrespecting and devaluing women.”
The behavior Phuong describes aligns with the general pattern of harassment detailed in numerous other accounts by actresses of Weinstein’s misconduct.
