        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mira Sorvino thought her career was over for <strong>speaking out against Harvey Weinstein</strong>.</p><p>&#8220;I actually thought it would end my career for good and I’d never work again. There haven’t really been whistle-blowers before that who continued to work. If you look at people who brought these accusations forward, they were not believed and they were shunned,” the Oscar winner <strong>told Vulture</strong>.</p><p>Instead, Sorvino, 52, has experienced something of a career rebirth.</p><p>&#8220;The [interview] gave people a new view of me and my potential. They saw a reason for why my career had faltered, which wasn’t necessarily caused by me.&#8221;</p><p>She continued, &#8220;In a strange way, I’ve seen the kindness of people in power who thought, &#8216;Wait, maybe we should give Mira another shot at things. Because we now understand. And that’s been very gratifying.&#8217;&#8221;</p><p>The &#8220;Mighty Aphrodite&#8221; actress spoke to the New Yorker&nbsp;and claimed that the disgraced producer pressured her to have a sexual relationship with him at the Toronto Film Festival in 1995.</p><p>“He started massaging my shoulders, which made me very uncomfortable, and then tried to get more physical, sort of chasing me around,” she recalled.</p><p>Sorvino also said <strong>she felt blacklisted</strong> by Weinstein’s company Miramax.</p><p>Discussing working on the Miramax-produced “The Lord the Rings” film series, <strong>director Peter Jackson alleged</strong> that he was dissuaded from hiring Sorvino and Ashley Judd, who also allegedly rebuffed Weinstein’s advances.</p><p>Sorvino can be seen in Ryan Murphy&#8217;s splashy &#8220;Hollywood&#8221; series on Netflix.</p>]]></content:encoded>
