Amanda Seyfried has recalled giving disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein the “biggest hug” after learning he had purchased her 2013 documentary drama Lovelace — years before he became a convicted sex offender.
The Linda Lovelace biopic, directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, starred Seyfried as the late adult film actor, who rose to international stardom following the release of the 1972 hardcore film Deep Throat. Lovelace also featured an all-star cast of Peter Sarsgaard, Sharon Stone, Chris Noth and Adam Brody.
