The movie will tell the story of the events surrounding actress Sharon Tate's death at the hands of Charles Manson and his followers. Abid breaks down the news in light of the recent controversies surrounding the Oscar-winning filmmaker. She considers whether the director's conflict with Uma Thurman will be a hindrance to the movie. We also discuss whether movies still matter in the era of prestige TV. There are new allegations surrounding Harvey Weinstein's earliest years in the entertainment industry. Abid takes us through the claims and how they paint a picture of a habitual offender.
