One of the aspects about Paul Newman we always admired was he never failed an opportunity to remind his salivating (especially female) audience that the impeccably perfect IMAGE up there they 'loved' had very little to do with him in actuality (his own marital infidelity was no doubt not far from his mind).
The point is it's all unassailable what one Does and what one Is doesn't hafta be in any alliance whatsoever; as others have already related, if that was the criteria then none of us would see a flick, go to a play, listen to a piece of music or have favorite works of art.
What distinguishes the contemporary scene, however, is you have these professional sociopaths who parade around in all their egoholic arrogance as something in public they KNOW their behavior off doesn't correlate to. Granted, in some cases in the current example, the red flags were so fabulous it's a testament to the image of 'safety' already spun for decades that few of the women ever actually thought to question - till too late after the fact - when anyone gives you a line about auditioning and reading for a part AT THEIR HOME is immediate cause to Flee in the opposite direction as fast as their high heels could carry them.
Even a certain real (not reel) life individual has said he wished he really
was as noble and selfless as the Star Fleet Admiral he's immortalized.
Now, within an industry as insular as Hollywood, there are few secrets which aren't open in their submerged acknowledgment. And there's something irreconciliably extant that people seem to get upright homicidal when evidence presents itself these entities they've seen parade themselves as so 'humble' on teevee and other protected manipulated environments are revealed to be every inch (if not more so) foundationally flawed as them - what, you're surprised? Why?!?).
Those gate-keepers whose very financial livelihood depend on their constant silent denial are every bit as culpable as the ones indulging in the acts themselves. But you've also got an alternate universe so fear-based where no one ever says NO that expecting anything else is most likely the greatest fantasy.
In the end, the worth of their work is probably the highest and most honorable part of
their personality. If you can't make that non-dualistic deal, you're not gonna be able
to watch anything ...
