BBC to make Weinstein scandal documentary

The BBC said it will produce a documentary about the Harvey Weinstein scandal with the working title ‘Weinstein’. The feature length documentary will explore how Weinstein abused his power and covered his tracks, and also vows to “illuminate Hollywood’s deep-rooted sexism”.

BBC commissioner, Tom McDonald, said the documentary “ask difficult and challenging questions about complicity, the price of silence and the corrosive effects of power. This film promises to be the definitive take on the Weinstein scandal … As well as revealing the inside story of the past few months in minute detail, it will also look to the past to tell the story of abuses of power within Hollywood since its very origins and chart the rise of Harvey Weinstein himself over many decades.”
