Yet another Hollywood movie has been tanked because of the perversions of its leading man. Accusations against comedian Louis C.K. are now pouring into the public consciousness. Five separate women allege that he forced them to watch him masturbate.
The reaction was swift. People barely had time to feel disgusted before it was announced that C.K.’s next movie was being dropped.
The New York Post reports: “Now, amid multiple claims of C.K.’s gross sexual misconduct, that movie — which screened at the prestigious Toronto Film Festival, won critical raves from male critics, and sold for $5 million to distributor The Orchard — will probably be seen by very few people.”
The movie, called “I Love You, Daddy”, would probably have been controversial even without the claims against C.K.
“C.K. plays a rich, famous television writer who has a sexualized relationship with his 17-old-daughter, who in turn becomes involved with a 68-year-old filmmaker inspired by Roman Polanski,” the Post explains.
Hollywood needs to get its act together. Rich, powerful men have been shielded from the consequences of their actions for too long.
C.K. has spoken about public persona before.
Well, you can’t touch stuff like that,” he told the New York Times last year.
“There’s one more thing I want to say about this, and it’s important: If you need your public profile to be all positive, you’re sick in the head. I do the work I do, and what happens next I can’t look after. So my thing is that I try to speak to the work whenever I can. Just to the work and not to my life.”
If Louis CK wants to force people to watch him masturbate pointlessly, he should run for Sen. Maj Leader.
