If you’ve followed up many of the big stories from the film industry’s experience with the #MeToo movement, or read the gradually emerging new stories about it, you’ll know that, whilst Harvey Weinstein’s convictions hit the headlines, most of those who were accused got away scot free – and still have successful careers.
