After the famous producer Harvey Weinstein was accused of a number of sexual harassment and violence against women, Hollywood seemed to have gone mad. On all sides, accusations of wealthy and influential men accusing them of harassing someone. Today, the press was made up by actress Natalie Portman, who confessed that she considered herself a victim of sexual violence.
I was molested in every project
Yesterday in Los Angeles, the closing of the Vulture Film Festival took place, on which Natalie Portman was the guest of honor. During the press conference that took place at the end of the evening, Natalie raised the topic of sexual harassment and violence in modern society. With the public and journalists, Portman decided to share her experience, which she had in communicating with men at work. That's what the 36-year-old movie star said about this: "You know, when I began to hear all these terrible stories about violence and harassment, I thought:
"It's good that nothing like this happened to me!", But after a while I realized that it was not so. In each project, I came across the fact that they wanted from me either a meeting or something like that. I admit, honestly, that there was no violence, but there were always hints of sex. In addition, I constantly felt the discrimination, which, believe me, carries in itself the same destructive force as violence. When I began to analyze my participation in various films, I realized that I was molested in every project. I have more than a hundred different stories that confirm my words. "
After that, Portman decided to tell a little about the fact that one of the famous producers appointed her a business meeting on board her plane. Here are what words recall this story of Natalie:
"In my life there was an extraordinary story, when one rather rich and famous producer invited me to a meeting. I understood that we will discuss the film and my participation in it, and so I agreed. When I arrived, I was invited to board a private jet. Even then I began to understand that this is a rather strange place for holding negotiations. When I went inside, I saw that at the meeting I would be alone with the producer. In addition, I did not give rest to a huge bed on board this liner. And so, negotiations began. I was always nervous and could not concentrate on the script. Then I said that I was uncomfortable in such an atmosphere and immediately listened to my words. You do not think there was any harassment on the part of the producer, but the very fact that he is negotiating next to the bed speaks volumes. "

Natalie refused to kiss in the frame
More than 20 years ago the famous film "Leon" appeared on the screen, which made Natalie Portman a real star of the screen. Then the actress was only 13 years old and in this role Natalie was often compared with Lolita. This so much did not like Portman, that she had a complex. Here is what the famous actress recalls that episode from her life:
"Lolita is not nice to me, and I would never want to be in her place. Because of the comparison with Lolita, I felt terrible. It came to the point that I refused to kiss during the filming process and play in the bed scenes. With this, I had to fight for a long time until the complex left. "
