But in \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, facing down the imminent apocalypse without Reese on hand to help, she is essentially forced to become him. She is the stern and dedicated soldier now. It's almost as if she's had a Lady Macbeth \"unsex me\" moment, transforming herself into a human machine in order to fight the actual machines she knows are coming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though motherhood is a major aspect of Sarah Connor's life, that fact is directly addressed only once in the movie, when she tells Skynet's Miles Dyson: \"Men like you built the hydrogen bomb. You think you're so creative. You don't know what it's like to really create something; to create a life; to feel it growing inside you. All you know how to create is death and destruction.\" Despite this, Sarah refuses to be defined by motherhood. In fact, just as Lady Macbeth figuratively turned her \"mother’s milk into poisonous acid,\" Sarah Connor has abandoned the role almost completely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, her son John is 10 years old and already a delinquent on a dirt bike. He is living with neglectful foster parents because an attempt to blow up Skynet's headquarters has landed Sarah in a mental health facility. Inside the hospital, her release back to her son is hindered by her inability to keep her rage in check. After her escape, she remains cold—when John leans in for a hug, she merely pats him down looking for injuries. When this rejection prompts him to cry, she ignores it entirely, even after Arnold Schwarzenegger's machine acknowledges John's tears. She ignores the boy frequently when he talks to her. While John orders his Terminator guardian not to kill anyone, Sarah couldn't care less who dies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another key to the movie's characterization of Sarah is James Cameron's absolute refusal to present her through the filter of the male gaze. The director is not averse to scanning Schwarzenegger's body from toe to head in several scenes, but it doesn't happen to Hamilton once. Instead, Sarah remains dressed for combat and make-up-free throughout. Cameron putting a woman at the center of his blockbuster movie without once objectifying her was—and is—a rare choice for Hollywood, and the movie is all the better for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an\u003ca href=\"http://www.terminatorfiles.com/media/articles/hamilton_006.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> interview with \u003cem>Prevue \u003c/em>\u003c/a>magazine at the time, Hamilton characterized \u003cem>T2 \u003c/em>as \"a violent film about peace.\" It's also a masculine movie about women, and a tech-focused movie that's ultimately about humanity. It is this backdrop of dichotomies that allows Sarah Connor to expand so far beyond what women are usually permitted to be and do in action movies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The imminent arrival of \u003cem>Terminator:\u003c/em> \u003cem>Dark Fate \u003c/em>promises to push things even further. Hamilton returns, starring alongside two other women (try and name another action movie with three female leads, one of whom is a sexagenarian). \u003cem>And\u003c/em> James Cameron is back at the helm. (Not only has the director not been involved with the last three \u003cem>Terminator\u003c/em> movies\u003cem>, \u003c/em>but the prospect of Cameron and Hamilton ever working together again after their \u003ca href=\"https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/film-news/7345843/Linda-Hamilton-life-with-James-Cameron-was-terrible-on-every-level.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">disastrous marriage\u003c/a> seemed, at best, remote.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCyEX6u-Yhs\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, Sarah Connor is a tribute to the strength and adaptability of women; a symbol of what women can and will do if their survival—and the survival of their children—is threatened. She is a female soldier in a medium that rarely represents them. And her return at a time when women's rights feel very much under assault does not feel accidental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know it's a foolish thing to say,\" Hamilton told \u003cem>Prevue \u003c/em>back in 1991, \"But after \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, I don't think anything can hurt me.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She's not alone.

That is until the very end, when she destroyed what was left of the Terminator and hit the road.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/k64P4l2Wmeg'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/k64P4l2Wmeg'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Though \u003cem>The Terminator\u003c/em> made it clear that one day Sarah Connor would become the fighter responsible for turning her son into a great leader, there was no way to prepare for what the character would become.

But in \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, facing down the imminent apocalypse without Reese on hand to help, she is essentially forced to become him. She is the stern and dedicated soldier now. It's almost as if she's had a Lady Macbeth \"unsex me\" moment, transforming herself into a human machine in order to fight the actual machines she knows are coming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though motherhood is a major aspect of Sarah Connor's life, that fact is directly addressed only once in the movie, when she tells Skynet's Miles Dyson: \"Men like you built the hydrogen bomb. You think you're so creative. You don't know what it's like to really create something; to create a life; to feel it growing inside you. All you know how to create is death and destruction.\" Despite this, Sarah refuses to be defined by motherhood. In fact, just as Lady Macbeth figuratively turned her \"mother’s milk into poisonous acid,\" Sarah Connor has abandoned the role almost completely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, her son John is 10 years old and already a delinquent on a dirt bike. He is living with neglectful foster parents because an attempt to blow up Skynet's headquarters has landed Sarah in a mental health facility. Inside the hospital, her release back to her son is hindered by her inability to keep her rage in check. After her escape, she remains cold—when John leans in for a hug, she merely pats him down looking for injuries. When this rejection prompts him to cry, she ignores it entirely, even after Arnold Schwarzenegger's machine acknowledges John's tears. She ignores the boy frequently when he talks to her. While John orders his Terminator guardian not to kill anyone, Sarah couldn't care less who dies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another key to the movie's characterization of Sarah is James Cameron's absolute refusal to present her through the filter of the male gaze. The director is not averse to scanning Schwarzenegger's body from toe to head in several scenes, but it doesn't happen to Hamilton once. Instead, Sarah remains dressed for combat and make-up-free throughout. Cameron putting a woman at the center of his blockbuster movie without once objectifying her was—and is—a rare choice for Hollywood, and the movie is all the better for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an\u003ca href=\"http://www.terminatorfiles.com/media/articles/hamilton_006.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> interview with \u003cem>Prevue \u003c/em>\u003c/a>magazine at the time, Hamilton characterized \u003cem>T2 \u003c/em>as \"a violent film about peace.\" It's also a masculine movie about women, and a tech-focused movie that's ultimately about humanity. It is this backdrop of dichotomies that allows Sarah Connor to expand so far beyond what women are usually permitted to be and do in action movies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The imminent arrival of \u003cem>Terminator:\u003c/em> \u003cem>Dark Fate \u003c/em>promises to push things even further. Hamilton returns, starring alongside two other women (try and name another action movie with three female leads, one of whom is a sexagenarian). \u003cem>And\u003c/em> James Cameron is back at the helm. (Not only has the director not been involved with the last three \u003cem>Terminator\u003c/em> movies\u003cem>, \u003c/em>but the prospect of Cameron and Hamilton ever working together again after their \u003ca href=\"https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/film-news/7345843/Linda-Hamilton-life-with-James-Cameron-was-terrible-on-every-level.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">disastrous marriage\u003c/a> seemed, at best, remote.)\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/jCyEX6u-Yhs'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/jCyEX6u-Yhs'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>In the end, Sarah Connor is a tribute to the strength and adaptability of women; a symbol of what women can and will do if their survival—and the survival of their children—is threatened. She is a female soldier in a medium that rarely represents them. And her return at a time when women's rights feel very much under assault does not feel accidental.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know it's a foolish thing to say,\" Hamilton told \u003cem>Prevue \u003c/em>back in 1991, \"But after \u003cem>T2\u003c/em>, I don't think anything can hurt me.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She's not alone.

Fun! Like the 1953 video, this 1967 PSA is absolutely terrified of biologically specific words. \"Blood from inside my body comes outside,\" a mom tells her daughter in a scarily unspecific manner. What's more, vaginas are referred to by three separate people as an \"opening between my legs.\" Surprisingly, that prudishness doesn't extend to the two close-up visuals of a blood-soaked sanitary towel.

There is random singing, mid-sentence; there are tales about the hard life of a Broadway child star (reach a certain height and get fired!); and there are abundant assumptions that interspersing educational clips with these theater actors somehow makes it more interesting (it doesn't, it just goes on for longer). At least it explains sanitary towel and tampon options though; the other videos make it seem like there's only one of each.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cstrong>\"Always Changing, Always Growing,\" 1997\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4qHUegNtPg\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Remarkably, this Always Ultra commercial dressed up as a teaching aid is the first to include valuable biological information since the 1946 Disney cartoon. Sadly, this one \u003cem>still\u003c/em> treats normal period-related misery as the exception to the rule.

It's like, how do we keep up? I can't even process the mass shooting that happened three weeks ago. I can't process the one that happened last week or the wildfires. It's all so much. Our systems aren't made to be able to handle this much information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People more and more need somewhere to just touch down and reconnect with themselves, even if it's just for a moment...\u003cb>\u003c/b>We need to stay as close to our humanity as possible in these times because it's so easy to get caught up in the extremes. How do we stay close to our human connections, our human emotions, our bodies, our selves? I think, if astrology is worked with in an intelligent way, it can help us do that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Mercury retrograde:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\"On behalf of all astrologers, it's Mercury retrograde; Mercury is not \u003cem>in\u003c/em> anything. It's just appearing to go backward. Mercury is the planet of communication so it is popular belief that, when Mercury appears to station and stop in the sky and go backward and then become invisible and then reappear again, communications go through a kind of underworld experience, which pop culture has really grabbed onto and made a lot more out of than it really needs to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that we're really forward-focused and we're really hung up on progress. Nature reminds us all the time it's really important to also follow the rhythms of life. And so Mercury retrograde might have us reviewing certain ways in which we're communicating, might have us backtracking, might have us not going forward in all areas of our life. But that's not the end of the world.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Mercury's trans nature:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\"Mercury is the only planet in the traditional system that can be either male or female\u003cstrong>,\u003c/strong> and so it represents this trans kind of nature. It's transgender, it's trans diurnal and nocturnal. It moves, it's liminal, it's in between the spaces, and so it teaches us of the third way. When Mercury's retrograde and we're thinking of this kind of liminality, then what else is present? Why are we so hell-bent on having life be one way? What else is Mercury trying to open up to us?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On what we can expect from the future based on the stars:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\u003cem>\"\u003c/em>I think what astrology does well is it teaches us about cycles. And cycles don't mean repeating everything verbatim; they mean we're turning back to something with a new consciousness, more information, and having grown. This cycle that we have entered as of a year ago, the last time we were in it was 84 years ago, which was 1934. And the last time we were in a similar position as we're having this year was 1936.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Back when astrologers saw this coming, a lot of us were talking about the return of fascism. We have that sentiment already loud and clear. It doesn't mean that we're going to be in the same situation. But what it does mean to me is it's an urgent call to action to be very aware of what's happening, to be very vocal of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you're somebody who said,\u003cem> If I was back in 1930-whatever, I would have done ABC!\u003c/em> Well, now it's your time to do that, no holds barred, without feeling any kind of shame, without feeling any reticence.

It's like, how do we keep up? I can't even process the mass shooting that happened three weeks ago. I can't process the one that happened last week or the wildfires. It's all so much. Our systems aren't made to be able to handle this much information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People more and more need somewhere to just touch down and reconnect with themselves, even if it's just for a moment...\u003cb>\u003c/b>We need to stay as close to our humanity as possible in these times because it's so easy to get caught up in the extremes. How do we stay close to our human connections, our human emotions, our bodies, our selves? I think, if astrology is worked with in an intelligent way, it can help us do that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Mercury retrograde:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\"On behalf of all astrologers, it's Mercury retrograde; Mercury is not \u003cem>in\u003c/em> anything. It's just appearing to go backward. Mercury is the planet of communication so it is popular belief that, when Mercury appears to station and stop in the sky and go backward and then become invisible and then reappear again, communications go through a kind of underworld experience, which pop culture has really grabbed onto and made a lot more out of than it really needs to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think that we're really forward-focused and we're really hung up on progress. Nature reminds us all the time it's really important to also follow the rhythms of life. And so Mercury retrograde might have us reviewing certain ways in which we're communicating, might have us backtracking, might have us not going forward in all areas of our life. But that's not the end of the world.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On Mercury's trans nature:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\"Mercury is the only planet in the traditional system that can be either male or female\u003cstrong>,\u003c/strong> and so it represents this trans kind of nature. It's transgender, it's trans diurnal and nocturnal. It moves, it's liminal, it's in between the spaces, and so it teaches us of the third way. When Mercury's retrograde and we're thinking of this kind of liminality, then what else is present? Why are we so hell-bent on having life be one way? What else is Mercury trying to open up to us?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>On what we can expect from the future based on the stars:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>\u003c/b>\u003cem>\"\u003c/em>I think what astrology does well is it teaches us about cycles. And cycles don't mean repeating everything verbatim; they mean we're turning back to something with a new consciousness, more information, and having grown. This cycle that we have entered as of a year ago, the last time we were in it was 84 years ago, which was 1934. And the last time we were in a similar position as we're having this year was 1936.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Back when astrologers saw this coming, a lot of us were talking about the return of fascism. We have that sentiment already loud and clear. It doesn't mean that we're going to be in the same situation. But what it does mean to me is it's an urgent call to action to be very aware of what's happening, to be very vocal of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you're somebody who said,\u003cem> If I was back in 1930-whatever, I would have done ABC!\u003c/em> Well, now it's your time to do that, no holds barred, without feeling any kind of shame, without feeling any reticence.

Nor has HBO been approached with any complaint.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In light of Busy Philipps' assertion that Franco was \u003ca href=\"https://people.com/tv/busy-philipps-says-bully-james-franco-pushed-her-to-the-ground-while-filming-freaks-and-geeks/\">\"a f**king bully\"\u003c/a> on set, his \u003cem>Deuce\u003c/em> co-star Maggie Gyllenhaal weighed in this week,\u003ca href=\"https://pagesix.com/2018/10/10/maggie-gyllenhaal-addresses-accusations-against-james-franco/\"> telling SiriusXM\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"At the time that the accusations against James came out in the \u003cem>LA Times\u003c/em>, we read them all, we took them very seriously. We spoke to every woman on the crew and in the cast to find out ... what their experience of working with James was and everyone said that they had been totally respected by him ... [\u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> is] about misogyny. It’s about transactional sex. It’s about inequality in the entertainment business. You couldn’t be more at the center of that conversation than \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> ... I feel like it would've been the wrong consequence to those accusations to shut our show down.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Gyllenhaal is right. Shutting down \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> after one (brilliant) season because of one man's bad behavior would indeed be counter-productive. But so is keeping Franco on the team. The most powerful messages in the series are undercut by his presence, especially given that most of the accusations leveled at him concerned violations on film sets, including the removal of plastic vaginal guards without the consent of the actresses wearing them (\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-james-franco-allegations-20180111-htmlstory.html\">Franco's attorney denied this\u003c/a>), and pressuring up-and-coming actresses to do topless and nude scenes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is a simple solution here, and that's removing Franco's Vincent and Frankie characters from the series. Though the twins were undoubtedly the lynchpin of Season 1, the hookers, pimps, mobsters and punks in their orbit have outgrown them in Season 2. Not only do we no longer need Vincent and Frankie, but with all of their mob entanglements, it wouldn't be a stretch for the show to kill them off. Bobby, Irene and the mob can keep running their parlors, Abby and Paul can take over their bars and Gyllenhaal's Candy can continue being the heart and soul of the show.

He is not an unfeeling monster,\" Tither-Caplan said. \"He created exploitative environments for non-celebrity women on his sets ... He's not an unforgivable person, at least for me.\" Paley requested only that he \"please just apologize.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In saying this, the women undoubtedly took the pressure off HBO to do something about Franco. The fact that the women's positions were much softer on \u003cem>GMA\u003c/em> than during an \u003ca href=\"https://www.insideedition.com/media/videos/3-women-share-stories-about-james-francos-alleged-inappropriate-behavior-40037\">earlier interview with \u003cem>Inside Edition\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, and the fact that Tither-Caplan was shaking, tense and clearly in fear for her career during both interviews, was apparently easy to ignore, even as Franco refused to give the women the one thing they asked for: an apology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the course of speaking out, Tither-Caplan said she believed that consequences for Franco have been few because he has \"the privilege of being \u003ca href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2018/01/12/james-franco-accuser-sarah-tither-kaplan-demands-apology/\">young, white and pretty\u003c/a>.\" But it also has to do with his public persona too. In November 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/nov/23/james-franco-i-was-certainly-taking-myself-too-seriously-before-but-who-doesnt\">\u003cem>The Guardian\u003c/em> referred to Franco\u003c/a> as \"a workaholic arthouse auteur trapped in a Hollywood leading man's body.\" In all likelihood, it is his image as a hyper-creative writer, artist and independent filmmaker that leaves Franco protected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Successful and eccentric male auteurs have been excused for their abuse of female talent for decades. Alfred Hitchcock's \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2016/film/news/tippi-hedren-alfred-hitchcock-sexual-abuse-birds-marnie-1201919851/\">horrendous treatment of Tippi Hedren\u003c/a> during the filming of \u003cem>The Birds\u003c/em> is well-documented. Stanley Kubric's mental and emotional abuse of Shelley Duvall on the set of \u003cem>The Shining\u003c/em> has been spoken about at length. But both directors remain revered. Björk says she suffered \u003ca href=\"https://www.nme.com/news/music/bjork-manager-accuses-lars-von-trier-verbal-physical-abuse-2153243\">verbal and physical abuse\u003c/a> by Lars Von Trier while working on \u003cem>Dancer in the Dark, \u003c/em>but his career continues unabated. Quentin Tarantino's new movie is much-anticipated despite the fallout from Uma Thurman releasing \u003ca href=\"https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2018/02/uma-thurman-crash-footage-kill-bill-instagram\">that disturbing \u003cem>Kill Bill\u003c/em> footage\u003c/a>. There is an idea that as long as you're abusing women on-set, and something sufficiently artistic comes out of it, the ends justify the means. Franco, an increasingly dominant figure in independent cinema, is undoubtedly benefiting from this notion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>HBO has always been a pioneer for feminist content. It's the channel that gave us \u003cem>Sex and the City\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Big Little Lies\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Insecure\u003c/em> and, yes, \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em>. But it doesn't have a good record of shaking itself loose from problematic performers. Bill Maher is 16 seasons into his HBO show, despite spending 15 years making \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2017/tv/opinion/bill-maher-fired-racial-slur-real-time-hbo-1202453240/\">sexist, racist, homophobic and transphobic\u003c/a> comments. TJ Miller was fired from \u003cem>Silicon Valley\u003c/em>, not because he was \u003ca href=\"https://mashable.com/2017/12/19/tj-miller-sexual-assault-allegations/#brQVBDn4HOqW\">accused of sexual assault\u003c/a>, but because of \u003ca href=\"https://mashable.com/2018/03/07/silicon-valley-tj-miller-split/#zvifP1RdHsqQ\">\"frequent tardiness\" and \"abuse of alcohol.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Based on its record, HBO is unlikely to cut ties with James Franco, regardless of how many horror stories come out about him.

Franco is also an executive producer on the show.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/nHd6tdIG4KI'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/nHd6tdIG4KI'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>HBO justified the move, saying in \u003ca href=\"https://deadline.com/2018/01/hbo-no-complaints-against-james-franco-on-the-deuce-amid-sexual-harassment-allegations-1202240259/\">a statement\u003c/a>: “We have verified that no complaints about Mr. Franco have come in on \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> production.” David Simon, the show's co-creator, agreed. \"We have no complainant or complaint or any awareness of any incident of concern involving Mr. Franco. Nor has HBO been approached with any complaint.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In light of Busy Philipps' assertion that Franco was \u003ca href=\"https://people.com/tv/busy-philipps-says-bully-james-franco-pushed-her-to-the-ground-while-filming-freaks-and-geeks/\">\"a f**king bully\"\u003c/a> on set, his \u003cem>Deuce\u003c/em> co-star Maggie Gyllenhaal weighed in this week,\u003ca href=\"https://pagesix.com/2018/10/10/maggie-gyllenhaal-addresses-accusations-against-james-franco/\"> telling SiriusXM\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"At the time that the accusations against James came out in the \u003cem>LA Times\u003c/em>, we read them all, we took them very seriously. We spoke to every woman on the crew and in the cast to find out ... what their experience of working with James was and everyone said that they had been totally respected by him ... [\u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> is] about misogyny. It’s about transactional sex. It’s about inequality in the entertainment business. You couldn’t be more at the center of that conversation than \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> ...

Shutting down \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em> after one (brilliant) season because of one man's bad behavior would indeed be counter-productive. But so is keeping Franco on the team. The most powerful messages in the series are undercut by his presence, especially given that most of the accusations leveled at him concerned violations on film sets, including the removal of plastic vaginal guards without the consent of the actresses wearing them (\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/business/hollywood/la-fi-ct-james-franco-allegations-20180111-htmlstory.html\">Franco's attorney denied this\u003c/a>), and pressuring up-and-coming actresses to do topless and nude scenes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is a simple solution here, and that's removing Franco's Vincent and Frankie characters from the series. Though the twins were undoubtedly the lynchpin of Season 1, the hookers, pimps, mobsters and punks in their orbit have outgrown them in Season 2. Not only do we no longer need Vincent and Frankie, but with all of their mob entanglements, it wouldn't be a stretch for the show to kill them off. Bobby, Irene and the mob can keep running their parlors, Abby and Paul can take over their bars and Gyllenhaal's Candy can continue being the heart and soul of the show.

He is not an unfeeling monster,\" Tither-Caplan said. \"He created exploitative environments for non-celebrity women on his sets ... He's not an unforgivable person, at least for me.\" Paley requested only that he \"please just apologize.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In saying this, the women undoubtedly took the pressure off HBO to do something about Franco. The fact that the women's positions were much softer on \u003cem>GMA\u003c/em> than during an \u003ca href=\"https://www.insideedition.com/media/videos/3-women-share-stories-about-james-francos-alleged-inappropriate-behavior-40037\">earlier interview with \u003cem>Inside Edition\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, and the fact that Tither-Caplan was shaking, tense and clearly in fear for her career during both interviews, was apparently easy to ignore, even as Franco refused to give the women the one thing they asked for: an apology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the course of speaking out, Tither-Caplan said she believed that consequences for Franco have been few because he has \"the privilege of being \u003ca href=\"http://www.tmz.com/2018/01/12/james-franco-accuser-sarah-tither-kaplan-demands-apology/\">young, white and pretty\u003c/a>.\" But it also has to do with his public persona too. In November 2017, \u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/film/2017/nov/23/james-franco-i-was-certainly-taking-myself-too-seriously-before-but-who-doesnt\">\u003cem>The Guardian\u003c/em> referred to Franco\u003c/a> as \"a workaholic arthouse auteur trapped in a Hollywood leading man's body.\" In all likelihood, it is his image as a hyper-creative writer, artist and independent filmmaker that leaves Franco protected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Successful and eccentric male auteurs have been excused for their abuse of female talent for decades. Alfred Hitchcock's \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2016/film/news/tippi-hedren-alfred-hitchcock-sexual-abuse-birds-marnie-1201919851/\">horrendous treatment of Tippi Hedren\u003c/a> during the filming of \u003cem>The Birds\u003c/em> is well-documented. Stanley Kubric's mental and emotional abuse of Shelley Duvall on the set of \u003cem>The Shining\u003c/em> has been spoken about at length. But both directors remain revered. Björk says she suffered \u003ca href=\"https://www.nme.com/news/music/bjork-manager-accuses-lars-von-trier-verbal-physical-abuse-2153243\">verbal and physical abuse\u003c/a> by Lars Von Trier while working on \u003cem>Dancer in the Dark, \u003c/em>but his career continues unabated. Quentin Tarantino's new movie is much-anticipated despite the fallout from Uma Thurman releasing \u003ca href=\"https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2018/02/uma-thurman-crash-footage-kill-bill-instagram\">that disturbing \u003cem>Kill Bill\u003c/em> footage\u003c/a>. There is an idea that as long as you're abusing women on-set, and something sufficiently artistic comes out of it, the ends justify the means. Franco, an increasingly dominant figure in independent cinema, is undoubtedly benefiting from this notion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>HBO has always been a pioneer for feminist content. It's the channel that gave us \u003cem>Sex and the City\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Big Little Lies\u003c/em>, \u003cem>Insecure\u003c/em> and, yes, \u003cem>The Deuce\u003c/em>. But it doesn't have a good record of shaking itself loose from problematic performers. Bill Maher is 16 seasons into his HBO show, despite spending 15 years making \u003ca href=\"https://variety.com/2017/tv/opinion/bill-maher-fired-racial-slur-real-time-hbo-1202453240/\">sexist, racist, homophobic and transphobic\u003c/a> comments. TJ Miller was fired from \u003cem>Silicon Valley\u003c/em>, not because he was \u003ca href=\"https://mashable.com/2017/12/19/tj-miller-sexual-assault-allegations/#brQVBDn4HOqW\">accused of sexual assault\u003c/a>, but because of \u003ca href=\"https://mashable.com/2018/03/07/silicon-valley-tj-miller-split/#zvifP1RdHsqQ\">\"frequent tardiness\" and \"abuse of alcohol.\"\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Based on its record, HBO is unlikely to cut ties with James Franco, regardless of how many horror stories come out about him.
