Title: NYT: We Sat Down With the 'Arrested Development' Cast. It Got Raw

Reason: User Banned (1 Day): downplaying abuse as "normal"

I'm not missing it, and I somewhat addressed it in another post. Basically, It's not the norm for her, as an actress, to be on the receiving end. It absolutely is the norm for most other people in Hollywood. And I've personally witnessed actors and actresses reaming out directors, writers, and producers in absolutely terrible ways too. They're just treated in a, typically, better way. A lot of people are similarly missing that while this clearly affected Walter, she says she would work again with Tambor no problem, that he apologized, and that she let it go -- and wants to continue to be friends with him even (something truly not required by actors at all). Because she's a total class act and also a professional. It sucks to compartmentalize some ire you drew from some random fuckhead who had to scream at you for some almost certainly unimportant reason, and like I said, I know that from first hand experience... but you have to have your cry, tell your close friend, and then move on. Just like she's clearly doing. She's certainly had more experience in the industry than me, but in a completely different way. As someone working in the industry, I don't think my insights are invalid just because she's a prolific actress. And it somewhat highlights an aspect of what I'm saying in that people pay attention to actors but not the other people in the Industry... which is most of it.
