He took to Facebook to criticize the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements :
"KILL ‘EM ALL! THE GUILTY & THE WITCH-HUNTED. Then you’ll have nothing left to watch other than the sanitised directed-by-committee crap you’ll so thoroughly deserve.”
He amended the post to add an asterisk and the explanation :
"I do not support criminal perpetrators like Polanski in any way. I support #metoo and abuse survivors. I do not believe Terry Gilliam should be lumped in with perpetrators for stating an opinion, however egregious. Clarification for those who might not get this.”
