The actress uses an Instagram Thanksgiving message to take direct aim at the producer in terms of Tarantino's character
When Uma Thurman was asked a few days ago in front of the cameras about her opinion on the fact that women in Hollywood were beginning to talk about harassment in the industry, her gaze instantly glazed over. In her evasive apology for not being able to comment (yet) on the matter, she vibrated the emotion and fury of the actress.
Yesterday, however, in her congratulatory message for Thanksgiving on Instagram, she left a withering message for the world in general and the aggressors in particular (the name “Harvey” present in it), with which she anticipated that she was prepared. to talk. Uma Thurman used the powerful shared imagery of her character in Kill Bill to express thoughtful revenge.
With a still of Beatrix Kiddo at the wheel of the convertible in the well-known Tarantino saga, Thurman evoked in the text that accompanied the photo a message of desire for revenge for the damage suffered, which immediately made us visualize her again in a yellow tracksuit and katana in hand. “Today I am grateful,” the actress wrote, “for being alive, for everyone I love, and for all those who have the courage to defend others. Recently I said I was furious, and I have a few reasons, in case you couldn't tell from my look.
I think it's important to take your time, be fair, be precise... So, Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (Except you Harvey, and all your twisted conspirators, I'm glad I'm being slow, you don't deserve a bullet).” She ended her message with a stay tuned, announcing that we will know more about what she has to say about the abusive situations that - everything indicates - Thurman would have suffered. The post has already collected 67 thousand likes, has a message of support from Gwyneth Paltrow (an emoji of a fist in a punching position), and has already raised support on user networks.
That day, in front of the cameras and the microphone that the reporter offered him, controlling the vibration of her voice, her words, and trying to mitigate her emotion, Thurman answered the reporter that she did not have “a statement.” ordered for you. Because I am not a girl and I have learned that when I have spoken while angry I usually end up regretting the way I have expressed myself. And when I'm ready, I'll say what I have to say. ” The Instagram message seems to predict that the actress is close to that state in which she will finally be able to share her story with the world, and with an audience that needs to know her and rely on her example to combat their own stories of aggression.
The wave of harassment cases that have been uncovered in Hollywood in recent weeks by victims, especially those involving Harvey Weinstein, Ed Westwick, Kevin Spacey, Louis C. K. or Bret Rattner; It aims to achieve something more than just words. She has united the women of the world in a fight that is gaining strength and, in some cases, has managed to alienate the alleged aggressors professionally. However, it has had no legal consequences. Only the testimony against Harvey Weinstein by actress Paz de la Huerta has ensured that, because it is recent, the New York police have collected enough evidence to arrest Weinstein (who is currently in Arizona, in a rehabilitation center, as if he himself had been an alleged victim).
Today the Eurostat agency's report on harassment in Europe has come to light, which maintains that, statistically, 200 women are raped a day in Europe. The report is only based on police data, so it reflects a limited universe with respect to the real dimension of the problem, and gives much larger figures on data on recorded attacks. After reading what Uma Thurman (aka Black Mamba) has to tell the world, we can't wait for her next move. Surely all the Bills in the world, wherever they are, if they have seen the movie, will now be very worried.
