What Do We Think?

Watching both the clips has made us uncomfortable. When it comes to the clip where he is seen directing the upcoming film’s ceremonial shot, the context remains unclear.

The discourse surrounding these clips reflects concerns about personal safety and respect and the need for women to be safe and comfortable in public spaces.
