Oscars 2023: The MeToo movies movement that wasn’t
just US$6.2-million. It seems that moviegoers prefer women screaming , whoo-hooing , gyrating with strippers , or as a murderous doll .
When #MeToo took off in October, 2017, it had a momentum that created positive change. Studios and production companies hired more women and marginalized people as directors and department heads. Underheard voices were finally being heard in How quickly that sputtered. In May, 2018, a poll conducted by Morning Consult revealed that for most North Americans, knowing that an actor was accused of sexual misconduct would not change their viewing habits. Fifty-seven per cent of respondents cared as much about the impact on an accused man as on an accuser. The New York Times kept a list of accused men – it reached 201 – but suspended it at the end of 2018. Vox kept its list, which reached 262, only a year longer.
Another nail in the coffin: At the end of January, the organization behind #TimesUp ceased operations. You remember #TimesUp. It launched in January, 2018, with stars wearing black to the Golden Globes and a legal-defence fund of US$15-million for women pursuing anti-discrimination cases. It referred 4,800 people to lawyers, funded 256 cases, strengthened anti-harassment provisions in many U.S. workplaces and lengthened the statute of limitations for rape.
