Dame Judi Dench expressed her forgiveness towards her friend Harvey Weinstein and believes that he has paid his dues after facing sex crime convictions during the #MeToo movement.
Weinstein, through his representative, conveyed his gratitude to Dench, acknowledging her significant role in his career. He stated, “She is an extraordinary person who played an important role in my career.”
Judi Dench, who has had a longstanding friendship with Harvey Weinstein, credits him for shaping her career and denies experiencing any misconduct as described by his accusers.
In a recent interview with Radio Times, Dench mentioned seeing footage of Weinstein in poor health, prompting her to express her sentiments of forgiveness towards him.
Weinstein responded to Dench’s remarks by stating his prolonged incarceration and his desire to reunite with his family. He expressed gratitude for the support he has received.
Judi Dench also mentioned Kevin Spacey in the context of forgiveness, revealing that Spacey, who provided comfort to her after her husband’s passing, has been exonerated of all charges in a UK criminal trial.
The contrast between Spacey’s exoneration and Weinstein’s conviction underscores the complexities of public perception and legal outcomes in cases of alleged sexual offenses.
