In what’s sure to be one of many films that probe the depths of the Harvey Weinstein sexual assault scandal, Barry Avrich’s new documentary “The Reckoning: Hollywood’s Worst Kept Secret” gets the stories of some of his accusers and the journalists who followed what led to the #MeToo movement.
Among those featured in this first trailer for the film are #MeToo-era accusers Lauren Sivan, Katherine Kendall, Melissa Sagemiller, Starr Rinaldi, Rebecca Corry and journalists Kim Masters and Margaret Wente. They share their personal stories about dealing with Weinstein and how he impacted their respective careers.
“It was allowed to go on because he had so much power,” Sivan says in the film. “If he was some schmuck in the mail room, he’d be in jail.”
