A Wrinkle in Time director Ava Duvernay called out Hollywood's sexual assault problem while accepting the John Schlesinger Britannia Award for Excellence in Directing at the AMD British Academy Britannia Awards.
As the accusations against sexual predator and disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein continued to pile up last week, Duvernay called out the abuse of actors "an abuse of a very singular kind".
"I regard the bond between a director and an actor as sacred," DuVernay said. "Because if we do it right, we're in a union, a creative marriage, creating life together. So to imagine what's been in the news this week, the harmful manipulation and harassment and emotional violence towards actors in my view is sinful. Sinful because I've held the innermost feelings of an actor in my hand."
