Uma Thurman 驚曝曾被演員強姦及遭 Harvey Weinstein 企圖性侵

去年荷里活電影大亨 Harvey Weinstein 的性騷擾醜聞曝光後，荷里活電影界掀起全球「Me Too」運動，受害者陸續勇敢站出來公開被性侵的經歷，但想不到荷里活女星 Uma Thurman 也不幸地是其中之一。近日她接受《紐約時報》訪問時，公開了自己的可怕遭遇：
I tried to say no, I cried, I did everything I could do. He told me the door was locked but I never ran over and tried the knob. When I got home, I remember I stood in front of the mirror and I looked at my hands and I was so mad at them for not being bloody or bruised.
Uma Thurman 在 16 歲剛開始演藝事業時，有次在酒吧遇到一位比她年長近 20 歲的演員，然後一起到該演員的住所，打算繼續喝酒（Uma Thurman 於訪問中說是 Nightcap），她隨即遭到對方的脅迫，即使哭著說不也沒有用，最後只能放棄反抗。
It was such a bat to the head. He pushed me down. He tried to shove himself on me. He tried to expose himself. He did all kinds of unpleasant things. But he didn’t actually put his back into it and force me. You’re like an animal wriggling away, like a lizard. I was doing anything I could to get the train back on the track. My track. Not his track.
八年之後，Uma Thurman 於 1994 年因演出電影《Pulp Fiction》而成名，有機會認識到荷里活的金牌監製 Harvey Weinstein，雙方更相約商討合作事宜。有次二人在巴黎一間酒店的房間開會討論劇本，當時 Harvey Weinstein 穿著浴袍，不過 Uma Thurman 起初並沒有產生戒心，直到對方叫她走進蒸汽浴室，Uma Thurman 隨即反問對方到底有何事，這次碰面最終不歡而散。二人不久後再於倫敦的 Savoy Hotel 會面，可怕事再次發生，Harvey Weinstein 在房間內將 Uma Thurman 推倒並試圖壓著她，然後自行寬衣，想對她進行性侵犯，這時 Uma Thurman 用盡方法逃走。事後 Uma Thurman 收到 Harvey Weinstein 送她的花，如常地想跟她討論合作計劃，此時 Uma Thurman 決定跟友人化妝師 Ilona Herman 一同前往對方的酒店談判，不過友人不被允許同場，Uma Thurman 當時警告 Harvey Weinstein 這樣會毀掉自己的事業、聲譽和家庭，但對方卻威脅說要毀掉她的前途。後來雙方在拍攝《Kill Bill》時合作，導演 Quentin Tarantino 昆頓塔倫天奴發覺 Uma Thurman 對身為監製的 Harvey Weinstein 態度不正常，在知道曾經發生的這件事後，Quentin Tarantino 找 Harvey Weinstein 對質，後者嘗試向 Uma Thurman 道歉，但 Uma Thurman 轉身離開，兩人一直保持距離。
