07/26/2021 This is how you make a documentary. You get to see the investigators battle their own in order to get the story out and bring a giant down. See more 07/17/2021 Two episodes in and I'm hooked. This book lends itself well to the screen, allowing the women that Weinstein assaulted tell their stories on their own terms. Long overdue, timely, important, and such an interesting follow-up to HBO's Woody Allen/Mia Farrow documentary. See more Read all reviews
