we wouldn't have heard about it maybe as much as we did because of who harvey weinstein is and who the actresses are yes exactly. going to come over to you because of the reaction in france initially in france or rather uncomfortable backlash in the south about yes it was a candle description see between the reaction that you could see on social media among the younger generation of feminists and the generation of the most famous french actress says yes there was a there was there was a journalist named mercy on him you know who started the ball which was the translation isolation of the media movement but there was also a column that was written by several actresses including get in there and many of other women yeah yeah get him yes he said levy and some other leading and french women who were saying that there who were rather supportive to men and saying that they were defending the freedom of bothering of annoying women in the public spaces so i was quite difficult because they have a white echo our friend so it was difficult for us french feminist to say that we you know there was

so, it's a fair comparison, although they haven't won the awards yet, harvey weinstein at the weinsteincars and you can say he had a special touch in winning those awards and netflix hasn't accomplished it yet, but they're certainly trying to. so, what will happen on the big night? well, there is a good chance that roma picking the best foreign language film trophy, and if it winds that the best picture award, that will of cpourse delight netflix executives and make a big hollywood studios shudder over the encroaching competition. as you heard, roma with its ten nominations co—leads the oscars field with a dark british comedy period, starring 0livia. this much like picture has been a favourite from the time of its lunch at the venice film festival last year. emma jones reports. the queen is an extraordinary person. they were all staring, weren't they? i can't tell if i can't see and i had to wear it back. and ugly. aptly, the favourite is the darling of this year were in season, it's the recipient at ten 0scar nominations. seven bathtubs including best actress and supporting actress plu

with its 0scar campaigning, netflix is taking on the role occupied by harvey weinstein several years he was a major force in winning 0scars. i think harvey weinstein‘s a fair comparison in part because netflix has bought the publicity firm that harvey weinstein often used to promote his films for academy awards consideration. that firm now works exclusively for netflix, they're working on roma and some other movies for them. so, it's a fair comparison, although they haven't won the awards yet. harvey weinstein, at the weinstein company and at miramax, won a lot of oscars and people would say he had a sort of special touch in winning those awards, and netflix hasn't accomplished it yet, but they're certainly trying to. so, what will happen on the big night? well, there's a very good chance that roma could pick up the trophy for best foreign language film, and if it wins the top coveted best picture award, that will of course delight netflix executives that make the big hollywood studios shudder over the encroaching competition. as you heard, roma with its ten nominations, co—leads the

i was one of the reporters that broke the harvey weinstein story.as helping to dig up dirt on his accusers he could use to help suppress that story. >> let's pause on that. "the national enquirer" was trying to discredit or intimidate people that according to you were simply telling their story at the hand of harvey weinstein. why was ami in that? >> they were involved in a business deal together, trying to get a talk show off the ground. they were financially test test test testt test tes test test test test test tes test test immunity and may lose it over this alleged blackmail. the question becomes, it may be unanswerable but i'll put it to you, are they doing real business with all these people or is that a cover story for them operating as these sort of information thugs? >> i think there are a million questions about exactly how ami has operated in relation to some of these powerful figures and what the real agenda was. >> did the weinstein talk show ever happen? >> it did not. >> that seems to be a pattern. >> after that was exposed in the pr

belly and the jury member said they were a bit conflicted about that ok i'm chill so talk to harvey weinstein a bit didn't she. she did you know she worked together with him extensively including on the english patient and to all of our surprises she said you know what he was a really good producer and she said justice needs to take its course but that she thought it was time to give him a rest and that she hopes that he would have peace to his heart and to his mind ok what a surprise certainly a headline ok david for now you go off and enjoy yourself thanks for the much. ok to show the diversity of the festival we've got a couple of examples a turkish film in competition for the gold back called a tale of three sisters but first a film from singapore called demons about the abuse of power in the world of the are here two women are getting the better of benefits of direct by speaking goble de goop. this review is standard practice for every starting to repeat his operating at a condiment of over five hundred million dollars we are asked to charge the mel will of electronic devices to control

they got rid of the think use of to harvey weinstein, which constituted 40% of the oscar time.hat left was this pious earnest virtue signaling, which i think they think because they bottomed out and got a little uptick in the audience, they in fact have a core audience that doesn't want fun, to go back to lisa's word, which is much more comfortable with its pious, earnest, boring virtue signaling. happy just to stick with that for its own sake because for some reason it makes them feel good. >> tucker: do they -- hollywood in some ways it's over, it's diminishing in its power and its reach, that technology has been surpassed by others. i wonder if they are going through the motions. this is what you have to say if you are a director or actor, you have to make these noises. do you think they still believe them? >> i think spike lee. certainly does. he the green room or green door, and i think most of the other people are reading glassy eyed from the telephone, and one thing is, that's awful prompter readers. the world's greatest actors and actresses can play any role on the plan

with its oscar campaigning, netflix is taking on the role occupied by harvey weinstein, several yearslix is certainly a big player and i think harvey weinstein‘s a fair comparison, in part, because netflix has bought the publicity firm that harvey weinstein often used to promote his films for academy consideration. that firm now works exclusively for netflix — they are working on roma and some other movies for them. so, it's a fair comparison, although they haven't won the awards yet. the weinstein company and miramax won a lot of oscars, and people would say that he had a sort of special touch. so, what will happen on the big night? well, there is a very good chance that roma could pick up the trophy for best foreign—language film. and, if it won the top coveted best picture award, that will, of course, delight netflix executives but make the big hollywood studios shudder over the encroaching competition. tom brook, bbc news. this is beyond 100 days from the bbc. coming up for viewers on the bbc news channel and bbc world news — 45 days to go until brexit and the clamour for clarity

do you think in this era, in this post harvey weinstein hero, women will be going to the oscars feelinght when they count how many women there are or inclusion, most people are looking at how much cleavage they show, how high this that on their dress, on their leg, how big their dress, on their leg, how big the diamond necklace and earrings are that they are wearing. in some ways, it is a very deep and meaningful night and in other ways, it is glamour, it is superficial, it is fashion. let's hope it is fun. let's get down to the nitty—gritty, who do you think is going to win? well, i would not dare guess. right now, the so—called auzqui gurus, the people are supposed to know, say thatis people are supposed to know, say that is going to be green or maybe green book, but remember, this is very private boating. many, many people with many different opinions. i think there is a while chance it could be black panther, but i think nobody really knows. and actually, thatis nobody really knows. and actually, that is fine and is really fun if there is a movie moving forward.“ fantastic to catch

there were cases involving harvey weinstein, where he was producing ndas on a photocopier, there weredantly clear that they do not wish to speak, and have not, but some of the people hadn't realised that there was the large number of nondisclosure agreements, and as a consequence, they do now want to speak up. this really leads me to one of the issues for reform. there is no transparency reporting. it is important that if there is just one case, that perhaps that can be dealt with, but if there is, if you like, a hotspot or cluster of ndas affecting one individual. that should be reported? that should be reported. hr should know, and the remuneration committee on any company should know that. we are seeing that kind of reporting in america. if the americans can get it right in terms of employment law, we certainly should. as we've been reporting, just over a thousand stabbing victims, aged between 10 and 19, spent at a least one night in hospital in the 12 months to last march — and the nhs is reporting a 5k per cent rise in the number of young people treated for knife wounds in engla

juliette binoche at the press conference earlier she's worked extensively with the producer harvey weinstein who's of course been accused of sexual numerous allegations of sexual assault here's what she had to say in response to that he could see had problems. as a producer he was wonderful most of the time. and i think it was a great producer and that we shouldn't forget even though it's been difficult for direct some directors and actors and specially actresses i want to see peace to his mind and let justice do what he needs to do. yes they got something that really made the headlines on the opening day of the festival people surprised at those comments and briefly guys we've got about thirty seconds first days over what can we expect tomorrow. well the big premiere tomorrow is false what was a new movie she's one of the top french directors and this is about sexual abuse in the church it's based on a true story yeah that's right it was say deals with a cool case this just started in france actually so it's extremely relevant a lot of people are going to be watching not tomorrow and a lot

people were happy to break with convention, last year the mood was sombre, reverberating from the harvey weinsteinll dealing with that and it's a rebirth and i think a film like the favourite which is female and powered characters at the centre of power is typical but it's also rambunctious and rude and loud. it uses language i had never heard in that combination. it's cheeky and it knows it so it's breaking with tradition yet respecting it and roma has its feet in the past but looks to the future and sees it emerging so to the future and sees it emerging soi to the future and sees it emerging so i feel this year is about renaissance and emergence and that hopeful outcome, a bit more female empowerment, it will not happen overnight. people are watching to make sure it does. and they are careful to commentate and keep the conversation is going so i think cinema is repositioning itself, eve ryo ne cinema is repositioning itself, everyone is talking about netflix, amazon prime, seasons on tv, and... amazon prime, seasons on tv, and... a lot for you to keep up with. cinema needs to work hard to come b

mentioned she was asked about that in the press conference that she gave she worked extensively with harvey weinstein of course on two of her massive films so she was asked about her relationship with him and what she thinks about the allegations that have come out about him he could see had problems. as a producer he was wonderful most of the time. and i think he was a great producer and that we shouldn't forget even though it's been difficult for direct some directors and actors and specially actresses i want to see peace to his mind and let justice do what he needs to do. now you were both just had a preview of tonight's opening film the kindness of strangers without spoiling anything for us tell us more. well you know we want to spoil it for. you but we actually aren't allowed to tell you our opinions because it's a world premiere coming out but we can tell you it's a little bit like love actually bill nye in fact is back but this time it's a little bit tougher it's a lot more dramatic it's about bringing together people who are living on the margins some of them on the streets of new york city t

member of the press about that movement because of course you have been or she has worked with harvey weinstein the man that she's referring to there in that clip in a number of her huge hollywood blockbusters she said that she felt that he just a should be done when it comes to how he was that he's the man who's accused of assaulting a number of women in the film industry and you never know she is clips that was something that really surprised a lot of reporters i think the idea that she that she called him a a wonderful producer that was something that's really made the headlines so far in the better very early stages of this festival. on the red carpet where this year's barely knowledge is getting underway show thank you very much we'll be talking with you a little bit later this evening. arza sports news now alexander schaeffer has been reelected president of european football's governing body you way for another four years scheffer and it was the only candidate for the post and secured his second term that you a visit and you will meeting in rome earlier he found that there'd be no breakaw

we heard about them in connection with harvey weinstein, jason. yes.because they can afford the lawyers and the court action to take them out, to silence people. there are cases you can see why them out, to silence people. there are cases you can see why you need a nondisclosure agreement, for example, you don't want somebody running for trade secrets. that makes sense. but they are being used, let us talk about this more widely and part philip green, they used by certain people is to cover up used by certain people is to cover upa kind used by certain people is to cover up a kind of behaviour which i think isa up a kind of behaviour which i think is a clear public interest that they are used. for example, if somebody, your boss, is a racist or sexist or bully or has assaulted staff, for example, and they then buy the silence of former employees, you don't know that when you go to work for them. now, is don't know that when you go to work forthem. now, is that fair? should you not have a right to know that as a potential employee? so that is one exampl

juliette binoche was also to balance the need to movement she's of course worked extensively with harvey weinstein the huge hollywood producer who's accused of assaulting a number of women. here's what she had to say. he i could see had problems. as a producer he was wonderful most of the time. and i think it was a great producer and that we shouldn't forget even though it's been difficult for direct some directors and actors and specially actresses but i want to see peace peace to his mind and let justice do what he needs to do interesting you have growth and just had a preview of tonight's opening film the kindness of strangers without any spoilers tell me more. well you're right it is a world premiere tonight which means we actually can't tell you what we thought of the film will be spilling the beans on that one later what i can tell you is this is a movie about faith bringing together people in very different very difficult circumstances all in one very hard winter in new york and it's about the kindness of strangers like the title says some of the times that the clip right now is directed by

a year and a half ago largely apologizing to the troublesome actions of the producer rather harvey weinstein now julia not been our studio. the head of the jury that he has what extensively with weinstein and of course she was also a question about it just a short time ago at the press conference. he could see had problems. as a producer he was wonderful most of the time. and i think it was a great producer and that we can forget even though it's been difficult for direct some directors and actors and specially actresses i want to see peace to his mind and let justice do what he needs to do. you know you also just had a preview of tonight's opening film the kindness of strangers now with down to any spoilers tell us we'll. how do you suppose it's going to be talk well i'm rita you know we have one of the best jobs in the world we actually got a sneak preview of this we're not allowed to tell you that much because tonight it's a world premiere so we can't give you our opinion just yet what we can tell you right now is a very tribal i'm going to do what i can tell you is this is the story of m

reacting to the harvey weinstein scandal. #metoo. has things change?op slot, roma, a netflix firm, fighting for top spot, never happened before. the favourite. three people fighting for the power of the country. emma stone with that imperious, funny, touching site performance by 0livia colman. the walk of a homecoming queen up this red carpet, i think. 12 nominations. i don't think 12 wins. but i think it's could win seven or eight nominations. whether best film and outstanding british film, that is very rare. the kings speech did that last. loving a film about a monarch they can love, the public. i think roma can win best phone. the last foreign—language film to win the double was in 1989, i think. a rare occurrence. i think roma is good enough, big enough, extraordinary enough to do that.“ beale street could talk director barryjenkins on the red carpet, did very well with moonlight. nominated for adapted screenplay, the novel from 1974 about the love story set in harlem in the 1970s. most beautiful of the year. unlucky not to be in more categories. r

i have been involved in a number of cases involving harvey weinstein, producing ndas on the photocopierhere were so many of them. some of the women have made it abundantly clear they do not wish to speak, they have not. some of the people haven't realised it was the large number of nondisclosure agreements, very similar organisations and problems. as a consequence, they do now want to speak out. this leads me to one of the issues for reform. there is no transparency reporting. it is important that if there is just one case that perhaps that can be dealt with. if there is if you like a hot spot, a cluster of ndas affecting one individual, that should be reported. certainly hr should be reported. certainly hr should know. there is the renumeration... we are seeing that kind of reporting in america. if the americans can get it right in terms of employment law, we certainly should. the us envoy, stephen biegun, says he's held three days of productive talks in north korea to prepare for the second meeting between president trump and kimjong—un. speaking after arriving in south korea, mr bieg

political system, the stories of some of the actresses who first spoke of their experiences with harvey weinsteinwomen who were wealthy, had privilege, had benefits, had sort of won white patriarchy and yet were still assaulted, in many cases violently, had their careers damaged, told the stories of how sexism had reshaped their lives. the testimony of christine blaisey-ford. her story was not believed she could be assaulted according to her account. her story was not believed, not taken seriously enough to halt brett kavanaugh. this is a moment of revelation. it's one of the moments that you're talking about when there are a series of events that reveal that even white women who enjoy some of the greatest and most obvious forms of power and privilege within this country are not, in fact, protected from sexism, from misogyny, from subordination of patriarchy. >> are you saying the whole culture of male/female dynamics, whether in an office, bar, restaurant, one-on-one groups has all been written, shaped with male preferences in mind? >> yes. >> what we need is a different kind of one that incorpo

whose reporting on harvey weinstein led to the me too movement.emember when i talked to the other producers about what an ideal vote come would be and i was thinking about blackfish, that film that made people turn away from an amusement park. and i thought that people kind of having all of the facts laid out would mean that they wouldn't be able to so vociferously support him and talk about his innocence and/or have their heads in the sand about who he was. no, i honestly didn't think we'd be here. >> jodi, what does that tell us about the power of documentaries in the midst of this me too movement? >> if you look at this particular documentary that dream made, to me the power is the completeness of the work. it's an in-depth psychological profile. the number of victims interviewed is really stunning. there's a lot of context about the movie industry. and so i think whether it's in a newspaper article or a documentary or a podcast, what matters is the strength of the reporting, the victims' voices, we're in an era where the definition of truth is

about it because this is the kind of things that if it came out in october 2017, the same time harvey weinstein's allegations came out this would have had an impact on the election, justin fairfax would never have been elected and our commonwealth wouldn't be hurting like this and going to this. mike: is it your perception that meredith watson will seal justin fairfax's fate? >> it's not just these two women that have given incredible corroborated stories with contemporaneous witnesses but many democrat activists and people involved in helping them. justin fairfax doesn't seem to have many if any democrats out there defending him which leads me to ask what did you know because it seems they all turned on him pretty quickly. these are the same people who told governor northram he needed to resign last weekend. and now it looks like fairfax may do the same. >> what about governor? will he be able to hang on to his office? >> i think as many democrats have said they have no confidence in him. how can they believe him and just this week there were reports that the governor and the governor's wife for
