here are so clueless hollywood is about women.ovie called "what women want" and it started mel gibson. kind of all you need to know. >> sean: the perfect man. a cold statue. by the way, the casting couch culture of weinstein and kevin spacey in roman polanski, we can go on and on. here with reaction to last night's show, fox news contributor, she lives out there, i have no ideaa why, tomi lahren. you know, am watching all this for the little but until "homeland" came on at 9:00 eastern, which i never missed, and i'm sitting there thinking this.no one can tolerate i knew from the opening 4 minutes it would be a disaster ratingswise, the lowest ever. >> it's really perfect what they did last night because, as you know, an actor is paid a ridiculous amount of money to pretend to be something they are not at all of these individuals in this room, they do that day in and day out, they pretend to be socialistic warriors and humanitarians but really they are just overpaid hypocrites they are not funny. i think that is the biggest crime h

of that thing is that i think the idea that hollywood is this liberal bastion of open minds and open hearts and that everyone is so well protected because we're all in this lefty wonderland as a joke and i think harvey weinstein and the what we've seen from that was what a joke and as the let me ask you there was you know jimmy kimmel's opening monologue which initially we all thought he was not going to mention anything about about harvey and all of that stuff. but gamma del toro's closing speech for its amazing speech i felt as a woman. and it was all to mostly very on the political aisle very liberal obviously nobody was going up saying we need to end abortion and or that we need more war anything to see do you think this year's oscars were just too political for conservative viewers and how how could we possibly have movies and so word movie is that how have these very intrinsic human experiences that are going to be political how do we do that without seeming sensitive insensitive to conservative viewers. and if i don't i think yeah i mean well yesterday you know it the funny th

hollywood film industry on t.v. as well videogames. the way that we see the outside world shaped the way that we see the institutions that govern us. well some people would be shocked at the connection in recent days the pentagon has actually tweeted how proud it is to work with ellen conan the price is right and c.i.s. why five zero. oprah two i know you've you've also investigated this is pretty much out in the open though. well they ought to give the impression of openness. the pentagon and cia and white house have all worked with hollywood produces for over a hundred years. they want to show that they have a good relationship so that they seem sort of normal and nice and all this kind of thing but they also want to ensure that they're playing down the amount of cooperation that goes on between these entities hollywood and the government and they also want to downplay how politicized that corporation is and of course the relationship is very politicized and it is very much more involved than than anyone actually admits i'll give you

>> my hollywood experiences are many. linda, of course as some of you know, has a little bit of a stake in "presumed innocent" because she was also a technical consultant on the movie. >> for free. [laughing] >> and a friend of the wonderful alan who directed and really wrote the movie. i was very pleased with the movie. the reality of course is that the first thing i saw in "presumed innocent" was between her and it was one of those scenes where ellen had been particularly careful and the assistant director asked me how i saw this and the sets were just perfect. it was one of those moments in the movie where the dialogue was taken straight from the novel, and joe and harrison ford looked very much like the characters that i'd imagined, and they were speaking the lines exactly as i had heard them in my own head. and still a voice screamed out inside me, wait, wait, the camera is on the wrong side of the room and it's never going to be exactly what the novelist envisioned, and you must let go of it. it really is the pathwa
