Oscar winning actress Emma Thompson says she is surprised by the response to an interview in which she said that sexual harassment is endemic in Hollywood.

Speaking to 蜜芽传媒 Newsnight in October shortly after the revelations about Harvey Weinstein, Thompson called the director a predator and criticised the environment which allowed him and others in the industry to endanger women.

In an interview with 蜜芽传媒 Timeline, the actor says it was a surprise that 鈥榩eople didn鈥檛 realise鈥� the extent of the
behaviour throughout society.

She said: 鈥淎ll women, bar none, from the age of maybe eight onwards will have a story to tell you. So, if that horrifies you, then open your eyes because this is a sexist society鈥�.
