Chastain has really lost me as of late. This just seems really attention-whore-y to me. If you're gonna bring something like this up, might as well call out the actor by name.

But that would be missing the point. She's saying that there are still powerful people within the industry that aren't as infuriated with the Weinstein scandal as they really should be, and telling her to "calm down" is putting the onus on her rather than on Weinstein. She doesn't have to name the guy because if she did, the narrative becomes about this one asshole in Hollywood, rather than what may very well be a systemic issue still in the industry: that outrage has a sell-by date and certain people would rather the issue go away than have it constantly brought back up.

The tide has shifted so much as of late I can't imagine a direct call-out would hurt her much. Maybe if the actor was a Scientologist?

then why not do it? Terry Crews posted Simmons email. Jessica just didn't want to get on his bad side. Stephen brings up some very good points. She might've felt like naming this person wouldn't be worth the hassle because it'd get twisted into the wrong narrative and exploited as mere celebrity beef, which would most likely just blow over in a couple weeks without accomplishing anything other than tarnish both parties' public image. It's one thing to name an actual abuser like Crews did, because he was physically harrassed and had his body grabbed; it's another to get into a public fight over an email (whose tone and content we don't even really know). Chastain has spoken about this email before in a different interview, and she didn't sound all that angry or combative, just disappointed and focusing on the big picture. She used it to comment on the industry as a whole rather than to denounce this one particular actor. Not worth burning bridges over, especially when for all we know this could be someone she likes and doesn't wish harm on.

I so wish she would name the guy. I see Stephen's point, but I'm nosy and curious.

I'm talking about the fact that Terry posted an emaill from russell simmon where russell told Terry to give his abuser a pass.Terry posted the actual email on twitter. If jessica was bothered by what either Matt or ben did then why not say so and so told me to calm down and I thought that inappropriate. She remained silent cause she has a lot to lose and didn't want anyone holding a grudge. Had it been a lesser know actor, would she say something?
