Fionnula Flanagan, who worked with the disgraced movie mogul on ‘Transamerica’ and ‘The Others’, has told how he “behaved appallingly” towards women.

It was an open secret, he was sort of repulsive with his behaviour towards women,” the Dublin-born actress told RTE radio.
"He never made any advances towards me but by the time I worked on ‘The Others’ on 'Transamerica' I was no longer a 20-year-old actress, it seems to be that it was actresses who were very young that he behaved appallingly to.”
