Blake Lively VS Justin Baldoni: Sexual Coercion on Film Sets with Brent MacLerie

from Red Light Exposé · host Red Light Exposé

Blake Lively, as well as dozens of actresses and crew members of the "It Ends With Us" film production, allege that systematic sexual harassment and coercion - often surrounding intimate and nude scenes - occurred at the hands of director and co-star Justin Baldoni and some of his friends and colleagues. Elly Arrow and Sybil Jo are joined by Brent MacLerie to discuss the allegations, how they fit patterns observed in similar Hollywood-context cases, and what it says about our society that the narrative of Lively pressuring and hoodwinking an entire cast into agreeing with her is more palatable than that of a sexually predatory male director. We also touch on the wider implications of the case which could have direct impacts on legal protections for harassment and assault victims who are further harmed by defamation counter-suits.Find Brent MacLerie's work here: https://linktr.ee/expatriarch"Click.
