So Uma Thurman has finally detailed being the victim of a Harvey Weinstein attempt at seduction (leading her to a steam room in his bathrobe) and what sounds like an attempted rape which he pulled back from.
Yeah, I feel sorry for her for having to face that.
But she also throws in her bitterness about Quentin Tarantino forcing her to drive a car which she didn't want to, which led to a crash (as she feared) and permanent injuries.
Well, that adds ammo to my pre-existing great dislike of Tarantino based on the content of his movies.
But I had already also started to distrust and dislike Uma when QT made it clear that she was his "muse" in many respects. She obviously liked and influenced the trashy, violent content of his movies, dressed up sometimes as female empowerment, but always heavy on bloody revenge. Her judgement was off, as far as I was concerned, for working on his material in the first place. No, that doesn't mean she deserved to be forced to drive a car in a dangerous situation when stunt double could have done it; but it does temper my sympathy somewhat.
