Manchester by the Sea director Kenneth Lonergan is denouncing the treatment of the film?s star Casey Affleck amid the #MeToo and Time?s Up movements, which support women who are victims of sexual harassment and abuse. Affleck was accused of sexual harassment by two women who worked on the set of his film I?m Still Here in 2010. The actor denied the accusations, and both lawsuits were settled outside of court. Lonergan tells Variety, ?I couldn?t feel more strongly that he?s been treated abominably, it?s not good for anybody.?
