Disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein claims he’s still influencing the movie industry from behind bars.
The 73-year-old convicted rapist, who long earned a reputation in the industry for bullying directors and demanding last-minute rewrites, now claims that filmmakers continue to seek his input in secret.
'I have friends who are still in the industry who slip me their screenplays and ask me for notes,' Weinstein told conservative commentator Candace Owens in a new jailhouse interview on her subscription-based platform The Daily Wire.
Despite his criminal convictions and public disgrace, Weinstein insisted that he is still a behind-the-scenes influence in Hollywood
'You know, can I do something for it? Can I help? Can I improve it? And I just give them my honest thoughts,' he told Owens. 'So I'm not doing anything for me, but I'm doing things for others.'
