Adapting the New York Times' 2017 investigation of Harvey Weinstein meant turning to Ashley Judd, Gwyneth Paltrow and others who spoke out against him.
If you were in a newsroom during #MeToo, you know it wasn’t a witch hunt; it was like watching a mile-high dam break.
“Famous actresses got much of the attention during the #MeToo explosion, but these little-known women were in many ways the heart of what happened,” Kantor wrote in an email. “To me, this film returns them to Hollywood with a dignity and respect they were never given the first time around.” "[As] you listen to something which is very physical, you almost have a fantasy of these two bodies as one tries to escape, but we chose the opposite: to have a very steady camera moving through the corridors,” Schrader said. “[Cinematographer] Natasha [Braier] and I always tried to stay away from illustration.”
Ashley Judd, the most high-profile celebrity to go on the record in Twohey and Kantor’s initial report, appears as herself, recalling how Weinstein lured her to a suite at the Peninsula Hotel 30 years ago and badgered her to give him a massage or watch him shower. Hollywood is notorious for taking generous liberties with anything “based on a true story” — rearranging timelines, changing characters’ names and inventing conversations out of whole cloth. The sensitive nature of the material in “She Said” demanded a more cautious approach.
