  • After being cleared of sexual assault, the actor is out to save his career.
    How long before Kevin Spacey is allowed to be uncancelled? Seriously, writes Allison Pearson. It has been almost seven years since Spacey had the leper’s bell hung around his neck. Is it to be a life sentence or are the millions who relish this great actor’s performances to be allowed to see him back where he belongs, on stage and screen?

      I watched the documentary last week only because he has been one of my favorite actors. I’m reading all the comments of love and support and the fact that this was a really good interview. She did it exactly the way it should be done.
      But I’m still having a hard time accepting that these men that seemed so vulnerable and so authentic and real and had the same sense of shame and embarrassment I’ve seen with women that have been through the same experiences that I’ve never seen before with men. I know they are raised not to cry or not to be emotional and I thought they were being very vulnerable and real. I love Kevin but I’m sorry I do believe the men in that documentary. I know I’m probably the only one that’s going to say this but I did not feel that they were lying. What would be the agenda of going up into the public forum and share their experiences?

      Yes. It's mostly about money, though, no noble intentions. Corporations are afraid to lose money so they fire people and reshoot scenes in movies. They would even put a finished film on ice just because Spacey acted in it. That means the work of thousands of crew members was for nothing. I hope that the Gore Vidal biopic will be finally released.

      ''very tough questions''? Which were they? She obviously was sympathetic to Spacey from the get go and her questions reflected that. Ms Pearson said at one time that nothing that Spacey was accused of was a crime in law. Since when has masturbating in a cinema, a public place, not been a crime? Are US citizens allowed to do that?

    How is it that in “Hollyweird” this great actor not be able or “allowed” to move forward, even when acquitted? Really?! Guilty or not, Hollywood is full of individuals who have done the same and even worse than Spacey. Highly hypocritical of this industry to turn his back on him. I personally hope he gets back to what he does best: great acting in great roles. My fav movie of all time is American Beauty, where I 1st saw him fully. Then in HOCards..incredible. He said he peace, says where he went wrong…hopefully he can move forward with his career.

He’s apologized to people and has worked to become a better human being now that he sees the damage he’s caused some people the last 7 years.

      …. those do exist. They are just as bad as actual abusers, because they exploit in a secondary manner victims of abuse, adding insult to injury.
      It’s that normal people can’t wrap their mind around somebody lying like that, that keeps these other abusers safe, while we as onlookers are helpless to identify what has happened as we don’t have the full picture.

    Thoughtful, meaningful interview. Interviewer was compassionate but straightforward and skilled. Kevin was open, sincere and likable. Of course, I've always like him. He's a brilliant actor. But he's also a kind, gentle and funny man. I hope to see him doing what he loves and does better than most - acting. He is a prime example of a flawed human (aren't we all!) who more than deserves a bright new future.

    I believe that an actor's personal life is his very own, and as long as it doesn't interfere with his acting/performance, who are we to judge. What has been done to Kevin Spacey is simply atrocious and all the big movie producers that would pay anything to have him on a movie and are now, in this day and age, turning their backs on him as if he had some horrible contagious disease should be ashamed of themselves and deserve no respect

MANY men have come forward. They can't all be making false claims. There is too much smoke for there to be no fire. This interview just doesn't feel genuine. He's an Oscar winning actor after all which doesn't help his case in giving testimony that is believable. He could easily be putting on a performance to try and convince people he was the one who was wronged.

      Actually, Depp was accused of being a wife beater, if that's not an assault... And he lost his trials on both side of Atlantic. He really lost both trials, doesn't matter that Amber lost "even more" in the American one. I don't get this "Depp is more acceptable". The bandwagon of Spacey crashed, even the insurance case officially destroys all the HoC accusers, they missed the moment when the "bosses" needed another narrative and will pay for that IMO. The docu is already laughed out, the body language "nails it", I guess. The makers are in a totally different league now. No lawsuits, but no awards either, hardly any serious project in the future. The poor "mental" guy in the UK with his "hacked" mobile phone will land in jail most likely. For perjury. Spacey won't do a Marvel movie, but he wouldn't do it anyway. The question is if he has a clinical depression or not, because that will prevent him from work.

    I was afraid to read the comments and I’m happily surprised. He’s an amazing actor and I feel was definitely railroaded. I’m sick of these people doing this crap !

    I believe this man needs to get back to a job he was so good at. Hollywood is a cruel, a very cruel place.

    This was an amazing interview. Kevin Spacey has been one of my favourite actors for years. I read a book I absolutely loved call “Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil “ and when I found out there was a movie I was excited to find Kevin Spacey was the main character. Highly recommend. I hope that the powers that be can put the past in the past and take the fact he was found innocent and let him come back to do what he is so amazing at.
    This is the first time I have had an opportunity to see Allison Pearson conduct an interview and I loved it. Very compassionate and real.

    He's having his Earwicker moment. Contrite and remorseful, damaged and broken, but defiantly hopeful in spite of all. Uncommonly moving.

      Have watched this several times now. He's not acting the nervousness and the jumpiness and the misery over the mother. Does he have something shameful to hide or elide? Undoubtedly, but it seems to be a sad consequence of the closet in which he was so long encased, outwardly translated into clumsy grabs and ever uglier fumbles and mistranslated tumbles. I feel very profoundly sorry for him. Hope springs eternal for his future, we hope.

    I'm so glad to see him back. He needs to fight back against this madness.

    I hate to see anyone wrongfully accused. And I don’t know what happened with Kevin Spacey and his situation. But It does seem like he has taken accountability and responsibility for his “bad behavior” and is working on himself to be a better person. He was awesome as Frank Underwood in the “House of Cards” I ❤ that show when he was in it. I hope he gets more acting opportunities… he is a great actor….. This was a really great interview. I really loved that Kevin said really nice things about Johnny Depp.😊. That was cool.

    This was a great interview. Kevin Spacey should be allowed a path back to acting. He has been aquitted on all charges in the US and the UK. It's time for everybody to show some forgiveness for what may or may not have happened and let the man do what he does best. I welcome his return.

    He's not taking responsibility for the ones he outright said were lying.
