Harvey Weinstein's case, which spearheaded the #MeToo movement across the world and rocked Hollywood, is now going to be on the big screen. 'She Said' is based on the New York Times Pulitzer Prize-Winning Investigation by reporters Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey and narrates the incidents that led to Weinstein's arrest.&nbsp;

The story digs into one of the most powerful and influential Hollywood personalities,Harvey Weinstein.&nbsp;

'She Said' revolves around the story of two Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporters, Jodi Kantor (Zoe Kazan) and Megan Twohey (Carey Mulligan), who are relentless in their pursuit of the truth, and the courage of survivors and witnesses who chose to come forward to stop a serial predator in his tracks. Together, their courage and commitment sparked a national debate fueled against Harvey Weinstein and started conversations on sexual abuse, particularly in Hollywood.

On why she agreed to play Megan Twohey, Carey Mulligan shares, “With Megan, it felt to me that journalism is a vocation for her. It’s not a job. She couldn’t have done anything else. It’s incredible, the balls that you have to have to show up on someone’s doorstep, knock on the door and say, ‘I’m here to ask you about something that’s probably the biggest secret in your life. I want you to tell me that and trust me that you telling me that can change things or make things better.”

“We felt the partnership of Jodi and Megan was one of the important parts of the story that we wanted to tell,” Kazan says on working with Cary Mulligan. “It’s something that you get to see very rarely on screen. I mean, it’s very rare that you get to act with another woman, period—let alone be in an onscreen partnership. The symbiosis between these two women and what they were able to achieve by leaning on each other and balancing off each other’s intelligence and integrity and perseverance was inspiring to me.”

Produced by Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, and directed by Maria Schrader, She Said features two-time Academy Award nominee Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan along with Patricia Clarkson, Andre Braugher, Jennifer Ehle, with Samantha Morton.&nbsp; 
The film is set to hit theatres on November 18.&nbsp;

'She Said' trailer: Film chronicling the Harvey Weinstein case to release on this date

'She Said' recounts the beginnings of Harvey Weinstein's downfall but at its core, the new film is an ode to investigative journalism and the bravery of the women who spoke out against the former entertainment mogul.

Weinstein -- sentenced to 23 years in prison for sex crimes in New York, as he stands trial on 11 more charges in Los Angeles -- once frequented the halls of the New York Film Festival, where 'She Said' premiered this week.

But five years after his career ended in disgrace it was Ashley Judd, the actor and activist who was one of the first figures to publicly accuse Weinstein of sexual harassment, who received a standing ovation at Manhattan's Lincoln Center.

In the film by German director Maria Schrader, Ashley Judd plays herself: an actor who rejects the sexual advances of a powerful producer, and pays the price over the course of her career, before years later coming out against him.

"It's so important to be in our truth and to have our righteousness to our story," Judd said during a panel at the film's screening in New York, paying tribute to her "sisters" who were also victims of Weinstein.

- Journalism's power -

On October 5, 2017, The New York Times published a bombshell article from Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, who had spent months developing it.

It triggered the undoing of the once untouchable Hollywood producer, as the #MeToo movement prompted scores of women to speak out against sexual violence and sexism in the workplace, its impact reaching far beyond the world of cinema.

But 'She Said'&nbsp;-- a script adapted from the eponymous book the two Pulitzer Prize-winning journalists wrote -- spends little time on the investigation's repercussions.

Like 1976's 'All The President's Men'&nbsp;about the Watergate scandal, or 2016's 'Spotlight,' which centred on the Boston Globe journalists who broke hundreds of stories about paedophilia in the Catholic church, 'She Said' focuses on the dogged, patient work of investigative journalism.

"Part of the reason me and Megan are so incredibly honoured by this film is that it encapsulates so much of what we believe about journalism," said Kantor. "We have both been journalists for a long time, but the Weinstein story sort of underlined everything we believe and put exclamation points on it."

Kantor is played by Zoe Kazan, and Carey Mulligan portrays Twohey.

The film highlights the complimentary way the duo worked together: Kantor empathetically speaking with victims, and Twohey facing off with Weinstein's agents.

With sober writing and direction and a score by composer Nicholas Britell, 'She Said'&nbsp;builds in intensity until a final confrontation that pits The New York Times against Weinstein and his lawyers, as the article is set to go to publication.

The film from Universal Pictures, whose producers include Brad Pitt, is set for wide release on November 18 in the United States and will hit European theatres in the days that follow.
