Alfred Molina says he saw Harvey Weinstein berate Salma Hayek on the set of Frida, with the former Hollywood producer and convicted rapist also giving him the cold shoulder after Molina compared the business prowess of Hayek to the producer.
The actor, who told The Independent in a recent interview that he did not witness any assaults, spoke about Weinstein’s behavior on the set of the film — specifically one “preposterous” instance in which Weinstein became enraged over Hayek’s spot-on performance.
After the disgraced former producer visited the Mexico set, he called up members of the film’s team “one by one” to his suite, where the actor says “he basically read the riot act to us.”
Molina added, “He’d seen some rushes, and he wasn’t happy with what he’d seen.”

Everyone calls Alfred Molina a character actor. And he’s very happy about that. “There was a time when ‘character actor’ meant someone who wasn’t quite good enough to be a leading man,” the celebrated actor and owner of Hollywood’s best eyebrows tells me, leaning forward, “and I think that’s bollocks.”
The reason for such emphasis on that word? A memory, perhaps, of a pep talk he was given in his final year of drama school.
