(CNN)A young production assistant thought she had landed the job of her dreams when, in the summer of 2015, she started work on "Going In Style," a bank heist comedy starring Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Alan Arkin.
But the job quickly devolved into several months of harassment, she told CNN. She alleges that Freeman subjected her to unwanted touching and comments about her figure and clothing on a near-daily basis. Freeman would rest his hand on her lower back or rub her lower back, she said. In one incident, she said, Freeman "kept trying to lift up my skirt and asking if I was wearing underwear." He never successfully lifted her skirt, she said -- he would touch it and try to lift it, she would move away, and then he'd try again. Eventually, she said, "Alan [Arkin] made a comment telling him to stop. Morgan got freaked out and didn't know what to say."
Freeman's alleged inappropriate behavior was not limited to that one movie set, according to other sources who spoke to CNN. A woman who was a senior member of the production staff of the movie "Now You See Me" in 2012 told CNN that Freeman sexually harassed her and her female assistant on numerous occasions by making comments about their bodies. "He did comment on our bodies... We knew that if he was coming by ... not to wear any top that would show our breasts, not to wear anything that would show our bottoms, meaning not wearing clothes that [were] fitted," she said.

Ugh. I used to say about him that I would pay to listen to him read a phone book aloud.
But he fell from grace in my mind back when he was screwing his step granddaughter. Then she was murdered.
So this is not as unexpected.
Harvey Weinstein is turning himself in to the NYPD tomorrow.
I think you mean his step-GRANDdaughter.
Murdered???
When?

She was murdered by a boyfriend.
Hollywood is now to be named Hollywoody.
Michael Caine and Yossarian!
Absolutely sickening. The boyfriend actually got off. That judge should be shot.
Poor girl never had a chance, with the horrid men in her life.
Morgan Freeman is disgusting.
Plus one
