Harvey Weinstein's legacy: A first step to removing the industry's systemic sexism

The first time I met Harvey Weinstein he called me an idiot in front of a theater full of people. The last time I spoke to him he told me he knew who my enemies were and threatened to give me to them on a "dish served cold" so they could carve me up "like turkey on Thanksgiving."

In the intervening 16 years, there were phone calls and emails, messages delivered by intermediaries, occasionally complimentary, mostly complaining about something I had written about one of his movies during awards season.

And now he's gone, fired from the company he co-founded, in the wake of reports that he sexually assaulted and harassed women for decades.
