James Toback Responds to Sexual Harassment Allegations in Bizarre, Combative Interview
Director James Toback has gone on the defensive, responding to the dozens of sexual harassment allegations against him in a bizarre, expletive-laden conversation with Rolling Stone.“The idea that I would offer a part to anyone for any other reason than that he or she was gonna be the best of anyone I could find is so disgusting to me,” he told the outlet when asked about the women’s many accusations.
“And anyone who says it is a lying c—sucker or c— or both.
Can I be any clearer than that?” He added, “Anyone who says that, I just want to spit in his or her f—ing face.”The Los Angeles Times published a shocking report on Oct.
22 that detailed accusations of sexual harassment against Toback by 38 women, going back to the ’80s.
Since that report broke, several celebrities — Julianne Moore, Selma Blair, and Rachel McAdams — have all come out with their own stories »
