It is not her job to educate men. If you wish to do so, by all means...
News flash Sharon: non-gorgeous women get harassed too.
“I’m an Oscar-nominated actress who turned in an iconic performance for Scorsese, and yet I will forever be known for pretending that an upskirt shot taken in front of three male actors, a director and twenty crew was something that I enjoyed and gave me power in the scene. Are you sure this is the question you want…
Sharon Stone also had the only good line in Catwoman. When Benjamin Bratt says, “You don’t wanna shoot a cop,” she sneers, “I’m a woman, Lone - I’m used to doing all kinds of things I don’t wanna do.”
She delivered it with a lot of conviction...
His question implies she may not have knowledge of harassment. The smart question as you suggest knows it’s stupid to wonder IF something happened...
Verhoeven and especially Joe Eszterhas were exploitive jerks. Showgirls alone should be all you need to know about them as people.
Exactly.
It must be so hard to have to deal with the same stupidity forty years on that you ran into on day one. You fought and struggled and fell back and came back and these fucking men just chug placidly, stupidly on, never blinking.
Oh man oh man. “Move over Kabbalah!” haha yeah I’m confident they had to do some research to come up with more that one or two. Look. A trend!
One Sharon Stone story I do remember. Remember that iconic scene in Basic Instinct when she uncrosses her legs to show the cops she’s not wearing underwear? She was apparently tricked into doing it.
She was always stunning, and is still stunning, and a large part of that is because she wasn’t shamed into thinking she needed to jack her face up with surgery.
“Hey listen, the world is falling apart, what’s a lip?” Jane Fonda is a gift! I can’t wait for Grace & Frankie to return this week. So so good.
She is someone I thought of early in the Weinstein mess because as a kid the only thing I knew about Sharon Stone was that she had a reputation for being “difficult” - a word that has been totally re-contextualized in my brain this past few months.
Probably an unpopular opinion here, but by him asking the stupid question, Cowan here is the stand-in for the clueless male viewer - and thus elicits the clip-worthy (and meme-worthy) cackling response from Stone. Let’s face it: if the dumb question did not receive such a glorious reaction, we wouldn’t be reminded…
Wtf, I didn’t know Blue Monday was a thing, because every monday is a blue monday. It’s Monday, the most shitty day until St. Paddy’s day.
The thing is, Blue Monday isn’t an actual phenomenon (Blue Monday is supposed to be “the most depressing day of the year”, traditionally the third Monday in January, for those that don’t know). Suicidal ideology can strike at any time, especially for those who have experienced it before and/or who have a mental…
I recall reading something where Chris Martin talks about how amazing his diet is where he fasts 1 day a week. I’m not a nutritionist or expert, but I’m going with my opinion that that’s not a thing. That’s a disorder of some sort.
STONE: [inhales deeply] I’ve been in this business for 40 years, Lee.
Sharon Stone is a gift we don’t deserve. That cozy sweater, on the other hand, is a gift I do deserve.
