MAKING WAVES

-

Director Kevin Smith announced on his latest Hollywood BabbleOn podcast that he is donating all the residual payments from his Harvey Weinstein-associated projects to Women in Film. “My entire career is tied up with the man,” said the director, half of whose films were produced by Miramax or The Weinstein Company. “No (expletive) movie is worth all this. Like, my entire career, take it. It’s wrapped up in something really (expletive) horrible.” When Weinstein’s sexualhara­ssment scandal first broke nearly two weeks ago, Smith tweeted, “He financed the first 14 years of my career — and now I know while I was profiting, others were in terrible pain. It makes me feel ashamed.”
