Legendary filmmaker Paul Schrader, the screenwriter behind Taxi Driver, American Gigolo, and Raging Bull, sexually assaulted and harassed his personal assistant on multiple occasions, the 26-year-old woman claims in civil court documents obtained by The Independent.
The bombshell allegations emerged after Schrader allegedly reneged on a confidential settlement he agreed to in February, according to an affidavit filed by “Jane Doe,” as the former assistant is identified in a motion filed late Thursday night in New York State Supreme Court.
