Judi Dench is facing public outrage for supportive comments she made about disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein, who’s currently serving out a 16-year prison sentence for rape and sexual assault convictions.
When accusations against Weinstein first emerged in 2017, Dench, 90, was quick to condemn his “horrifying” behavior. While at the time, she acknowledged that the former film producer had “helped and championed my film career for the past 20 years,” she admitted she was “completely unaware of these offenses.”
