Hollywood Reacts To James Toback Allegations: “Damn You”, “A Disgrace”
Rose McGowan, Paul Feig and Asia Argento were among the first today to condemn director James Toback after the Los Angeles Times’ devastating report of sexual harassment allegations. According to The Times, 38 women have come forward, prompting McGowan to tweet “James Toback damn you for stealing, damn you for traumatizing.”
