Hollywood director Terry Gilliam, who sparked a firestorm by saying ambitious actresses willingly "paid the price" of having sex with Harvey Weinstein to get ahead, on Wednesday categorically slammed the producer as a "monster".
"Weinstein is a monster," the former Monty Python member told reporters in Paris. "He is a horrible man and he has ruined so many lives of people and he will be punished for it. That's it."
