In another moment, Kazan, 38, asks Mulligan, 37, how she was able to “persuade women to tell you what had happened to them.”
The answer: “The case I made was, ‘I can’t change what happened to you in the past, but together we may be able to help protect other people.’ The truth, basically.”

Twohey and Kantor’s reportingwon a 2018 Pulitzer Prizefor “explosive, impactful journalism that exposed powerful and wealthy sexual predators, including allegations against one of Hollywood’s most influential producers, bringing them to account for long-suppressed allegations of coercion, brutality and victim silencing, thus spurring a worldwide reckoning about sexual abuse of women.”
Weinstein, 70, iscurrently serving a 23-year prison sentencein New York after a jury found him guilty of criminal sexual act in the first degree and rape in the third degree, stemming from assaults in 2006 and 2013.
