Playwright Israel Horovitz, for example, is finally facing the consequences of actions that were thoroughly covered by the Boston Phoenix weekly in 1993. This made me speculate that <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/2017\/12\/time-for-r-kelly-to-face-the-music\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">singer R. Kelly &#8212; whose abuse of underage girls and young women has been reported by music critic Jim DeRogatis since 2000 &#8212; may finally face a different kind of music himself<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Speaking of music,<em>Saturday Night Live<\/em> aired a pointed song about sexual harassment called &#8220;Welcome to Hell&#8221; with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=F57P9C4SAW4\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Katy Perry-style candy-themed set<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1l26UFQ06eQ\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/center><\/p>\n<p>I especially appreciated these lyrics:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n<em>&#8220;Now House of Cards is ruined and that really sucks.<br \/>\nWell here&#8217;s a list of stuff that&#8217;s ruined for us:<br \/>\nparking, and walking, and Uber,<br \/>\nand ponytails, and bathrobes, and night time,<br \/>\nand drinking, and hotels, and vans.&#8221;<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It was perfect that those lines came right after Leslie Jones stepped into the skit to remind us that everything is worse for women of color. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2016\/08\/a-timeline-of-leslie-joness-horrific-online-abuse.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jones suffered exceptionally relentless online abuse last year <\/a>as one of the stars of the all-woman remake of <em>Ghostbusters<\/em>. Trolls generally went berserk over the concept long before the movie came out, supposedly because the remake &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wweek.com\/arts\/2016\/07\/14\/the-ghostbusters-reboot-might-ruin-your-childhood\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">ruined their childhood<\/a>.&#8221; But none of the white stars got it as bad as Jones did. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s good that <em>SNL<\/em> now voluntarily shares clips on YouTube because I couldn&#8217;t watch <em>Saturday Night Live<\/em> live this weekend. I was out seeing <em>Lady Bird<\/em>, the movie starring SNL guest host Saoirse Ronan. The movie is Greta Gerwig&#8217;s solo directorial debut and <a href=\"https:\/\/editorial.rottentomatoes.com\/article\/lady-bird-just-broke-a-rotten-tomatoes-record-heres-what-greta-gerwig-has-to-say-about-that\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the many rave reviews are justified<\/a>. I&#8217;ll be shocked if <em>Lady Bird<\/em> doesn&#8217;t get Oscar nominations for Best Director, Best Picture, Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role, and Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role (the incredible <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Laurie_Metcalf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Laurie Metcalf<\/a>). Other small-budget but stellar movies that I expect to see at the Oscars include <em>Get Out<\/em>, <em>The Florida Project<\/em> (which I can&#8217;t stop thinking about), and <em>Call Me By Your Name<\/em>. What makes that extra-gratifying is that it proves no one is irreplaceable, including Harvey Weinstein, who fancied himself the king of the smart, award-winning film. Now <a href=\"http:\/\/wendybrandes.com\/blog\/2017\/10\/the-harvey-weinstein-sex-abuse-scandal-grows\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">that he&#8217;s been exposed as a sexual predator and dethroned<\/a>, it turns out that we have no reason to miss him.
