    I find this story kind of weird, like biased against Kevin Spacey, or making a story where there isn't one. I think that because I read that the movie was released straight to on demand before it hit exactly 12 theatres worldwide (which was likely done simply to qualify the film for movie awards). This was clearly just some rinky dink movie that probably wouldn't have earned much more, if any more, had Spacey not been #metoo'd.

    What movement? And why was this bad for this "movement"?

    What does that have to do with a Kevin Spacey movie being sent out to die?

    Or is Drudge linking them two - Hannity-style?

    Ah. I don't actually do what you do with one-off stories, so I don't feel like that has any impact in my world. If the story is actually accurate in the way it's being framed, then yeah, she's a jerk.
