“I knew enough to do more than I did,” Tarantino told the Times. “There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasn’t secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things.”
The Pulp Fiction director knew, for instance, that a former girlfriend of his, Mira Sorvino, had alleged Weinstein sexually harassed her, because she told him about it herself. He heard a similar story from a different actress years later and knew about Rose McGowan’s settlement with Weinstein, too. Tarantino admitted that if he’d been a responsible, decent person at the time he, “would have had to not work with him.”
Weinstein and Tarantino partnered as producer and director on a slew of influential projects, including Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Basterds, and the Kill Bill movies.
