The conclusion of the two-episode, Amy Berg–directed documentary Phoenix Rising, which focuses on Evan Rachel Wood ’s abuse allegations against Marilyn Manson, airs tonight on HBO and is
There’s a running theme in Phoenix Rising, the two-part documentary on Evan Rachel Wood’s story of domestic and sexual abuse by shock rocker Marilyn Manson, of evidence. Wood, a 34-year-old actor, has old photos from the early stages of her relationship with Manson, whom she met as an 18-year-old in 2006 (he was 37) – cherubic and teenage before, atrophied and vacant film selects from journal entries recounting her emotions as he turned her against friends and family. There are so many press and paparazzi photos of them together, which makes public fascination with the pair – a gorgeous Hollywood Lolita with middle America’s nightmare in goth makeup – feel even more queasy now. During filming from 2019 until Wood publicly named Manson, given name Brian Warner, on Instagram in February 2021, several other women and former Manson associates come forward with details either mirroring her experience or corroborating her memories riddled by the repetitive trauma, sleep deprivation and drugs she says Manson forced on can’t stop thinking about this evidence; most women don’t have near the documentation Wood does, as confirmation or support for their own memories, let alone as material for authorities. As we have seen time and again with first-person accounts stemming from the revelations of the #MeToo movement, there is power and catharsis in disclosure, in telling one’s story. But for all Wood’s personal testimony, her processing of years of memories through the language of trauma and therapy for herself and for us, the pursuit of legal action – the backbone of Phoenix Rising’s narrative – comes down to documentation, files, photos, a the star of HBO’s Westworld, Wood has considerable power in her own right, and little incentive to accuse Manson for the sake of publicity, as he has claimed in a defamation lawsuit filed earlier this month (conveniently timed, as Wood told The Cut earlier this week, to the release of the documentary). So it’s disheartening to see, over the course of three hours of film covering months of working through the system, how little changes and how much comes back down to perceived trustworthiness of one’s story. To date, 16 women have accused Manson, 53, of sexual abuse – including the Game of Thrones actor Esme Bianco, whose story shares striking similarities with Wood’s – and four have sued for sexual assault. Manson has denied all allegations and has not been charged with a crime. His defamation lawsuit alleges Wood and her friend, the activist Ilma Gore, concocted a conspiracy to defame him and forged an FBI letter to shore up Wood’s allegations. (Gore, Wood told the Cut, is no longer affiliated with The Phoenix Act, Wood’s non-profit to change the statute of limitations on abuse cases.)Phoenix Rising, directed by the Oscar-nominated Amy Berg (An Open Secret, The Case Against Adnan Syed), is the latest in a wave of documentary projects in the #MeToo era that uncovered patterns of abuse by beloved public figures, traced the long shadow of sexual trauma, and outlined the cultures that turned a blind eye. This includes Leaving Neverland, the 2019 HBO series on two thorough accounts of alleged child sexual abuse by Michael Jackson; Catch and Kill: The Podcast Tapes, on Ronan Farrow’s 2017 investigation of Harvey Weinstein, which helped ignite the outpouring of recognition that became #MeToo; On the Record, which follows former Def Jam executive Drew Dixon as she contemplates telling her story of alleged rape by the music mogul Russell Simmons to the New York Times. There’s Lifetime’s Surviving R Kelly, Showtime’s We Need to Talk About Cosby, and Athlete A, on the journalists, lawyers and gymnasts who exposed the systemic of abuse of cover-up of USA gymnastics doctor Larry Nasser. HBO’s Allen v Farrow, released last year, was both an investigation into allegations that director Woody Allen molested his daughter Dylan and a personal account of Dylan’s life warped by trauma, processing and years of public scorn and of these projects strike the balance between messiness of experience, the often cyclical nature of pain and abuse, and clarity of ethics better than others. Some are justifiably postured against retaliation. All deal with the legal and emotional consequences of coming forward against a prominent person. Different alleged crimes and context, of course, but they’re all dealing, fundamentally, with intimate trauma: how it presents and morphs, how one lives with it, how long it takes to begin to allegations are, to be clear, consistently horrifying. Among them: that Manson repeatedly drugged, manipulated and coerced her on the set of his 2007 music video Heart-Shaped Glasses and “essentially raped” her on camera; that Manson controlled her eating, raped her in her sleep after he gave her a sleeping pill, tortured her with an electric shocking device, beat her with “a Nazi whip from the Holocaust” while she was tied to a kneeler and fed her meth and other drugs without her knowledge. In concert with several other women, some of whom appear in the film in a meet-up, Wood outlines a pattern of love-bombing, isolation, control and Rising, like the others, hinges on disclosure, the catharsis that is telling one’s story, and the tricky navigation of publicity. But it also feels like the outer limit of what a #MeToo documentary can do. Five years of listening, five years of hearing the same type of patterns and recognizing how predators operate within cultures and systems, how messy one’s personal life can be and still not detract from the violation. What do we do now? As the documentary depicts, Wood was successful in getting the Phoenix Act passed in California, which raised the statute of limitations on domestic violence felonies from three to five years and required police officers to undergo more training on intimate partner violence. She cooperates with a Los Angeles police investigation into Manson and gives an interview to the FBI, shown wordlessly in the Rachel Wood. Photograph: Olivia Fougeirol/APBut still it comes down to attention. By film’s end, fearful for her safety and hiding out with her child in Tennessee, Wood decides that issuing a public statement is the best course forward. “If there’s not public outrage about this and about the crimes that he’s committed, and if there aren’t people coming forward, then there’s no real incentive for law enforcement to do something,” she says over footage of her drafting a grenade of an Instagram post. “And we could just be waiting in line at the DMV for two years waiting for something to happen.”The Phoenix Act seems eminently reasonable, an opportunity to better shape laws to the human experience and what these films, long-form investigations, podcast, testimonials hammer home again and again: trauma is messy, idiosyncratic, mutable, chameleonic. One’s ability to see clearly is a slow process even with the privilege of therapy and time. “People underestimate the power of that kind of trauma and what it does to your body and your brain,” Wood told Trevor Noah on the Daily Show this week. “This is what the laws do not reflect: the effects of trauma on the brain.”Wood was in Manson’s orbit for close to four years; when she began work on the Phoenix Act amid the #MeToo movement, the statute of limitations in California was one to three years. “One to three years is nothing to a survivor,” she told Noah. “It’s nowhere near enough.”Manson is still free (and collaborating with Kanye West), as is his right, given that he’s never been charged with or convicted of a crime. Phoenix Rising, for all its messy and compelling personal elements, ultimately jabs at that fact. When the criminal justice system doesn’t account for the long tail of trauma, what do you do? What is fair, what is right? And is it worth it? Five years and many thematically similar documentaries in, we still don’t have good answers.

Aktorka mówiła, że była terroryzowana przez lata. W końcu zdradziła, o kim mowa. To Marilyn Manson miał znęcać się, nad była narzeczoną. Para zaczęła się spotykać, gdy Evan Rachel Wood miała 19 lat, a Marilyn Manson 38. Jak naprawdę wyglądała ich relacja? Evan Rachel Wood kilka lat temu zszokowała opinię publiczną, mówiąc o koszmarach, jakie przeżyła. Aktorka na łamach Rolling Stone w 2016 roku wyznała, że była ofiarą gwałtu i przemocy domowej. Trzy lata później Evan Rachel Wood stworzyła Phoenix Act, ustawę, która wydłuża okres przedawnienia przemocy domowej z trzech do pięciu lat. Gubernator Kalifornii Gavin Newsom podpisał ustawę w październiku 2019 r. Przed Senatem Kalifornii Evan Rachel Wood zeznawała, że jej oprawca ukrywał przed nią uzależnienie od narkotyków i alkoholu. Miał też "napady skrajnej zazdrości, które często kończyły się zniszczeniem naszego domu, zapędzeniem mnie w róg w pokoju i grożeniem mi" Przez lata aktorka nie mówiła, kim jest jej oprawca. Teraz Evan Rachel Wood oskarża Marilyna Mansona! Marilyn Manson terroryzował ex narzeczoną? Marilyn Manson i Evan Rachel Wood byli parą lata temu, kiedy ona miała 19 lat, a on 38. W 2010 roku się zaręczyli. Jednak zamiast do ślubu, doszło do rozstania. Później Evan Rachel Wood opowiadała o przerażających doświadczeniach. Miała być zastraszana i torturowana psychicznie. Teraz aktorka mówi wprost - jej oprawcą jest Marilyn Manson. Nazywa się Brian Warner, znany światu również jako Marilyn Manson. Zaczął mnie mamić, gdy byłam nastolatką i strasznie mnie maltretował przez lata. Zostałam poddana praniu mózgu i wmanipulowana w uległość. Skończyłam żyć w strachu przed odwetem, oszczerstwami lub szantażem. Jestem tutaj, aby zdemaskować tego niebezpiecznego człowieka i wskazać wiele gałęzi przemysłu, które mu umożliwiły, zanim zrujnuje kolejne życie. Stoję z wieloma ofiarami, które nie będą już milczeć. Pisała Evan Rachel Wood w oświadczeniu dla Vanity Fair Media zwracają uwagę na dawne wywiady oskarżonego muzyka. W 2009 Marilyn Manson powiedział o swojej dziewczynie: Każdego dnia mam fantazje na temat rozbicia jej czaszki młotem kowalskim. Evan Rachel Wood nie jest jedyną, która oskarża Marilyna Mansona. Ofiarami różnych form przemocy miało być kilka innych kobiet. Ludzie Marilyna Mansona wydali oświadczenie, w którym oczywiście wszystkiemu zaprzeczają. Ilu followersów mają gwiazdy?

Marilyn Manson szykuje się do procesu z byłą partnerką Evan Rachel Wood, którą oskarżył o zniesławienie. Będziemy mieć powtórkę ze sprawy Johnny’ego Deppa i Amber Heard? Tak uważa autorka twittów, które od piątku rozgrzewają internet do białości. Jej zdaniem prawne zwycięstwo Deppa stanowi „niebezpieczny precedens”, na którym mężczyźni oskarżeni o nadużycia wobec kobiet mogą opierać się w sądzie. Marilyn Manson vs. Evan Rachel Wood Na początku 2021 roku Evan Rachel Wood oskarżyła swojego byłego partnera Marilyna Mansona o psychiczne i fizyczne znęcanie się nad nią. Niedługo potem premierę miał wyreżyserowany przez Amy Berg dokument „Jak feniks” („Phoenix Rising”), w którym aktorka opowiedziała o relacji z kontrowersyjnym artystą. Mówiąc o koszmarach, których doświadczyła, oskarżyła ekspartnera o gwałt na planie teledysku. Muzyk początkowo wystosowywał oświadczenia, w którym podważał słowa 34-latki, jednak w marcu 2022 roku zdecydował się skierować sprawę na drogę sądową. Jego prawnicy złożyli do Sądu Najwyższego w Los Angeles pozew przeciw Wood, w którym oskarżają ją o zniesławienie i fałszowanie dowodów ( listu od agenta FBI). 53-letni gwiazdor krótko skomentował sprawę na Instagramie. Nadejdzie czas, kiedy będę mógł się podzielić większą ilością informacji na temat ostatniego roku. Do tego czasu będę musiał pozwolić faktom mówić za siebie – napisał. Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard W tak zwanym międzyczasie bardzo dobry kumpel Marilyna Mansona, Johnny Depp, wygrał proces o zniesławienie, który wytoczył byłej żonie Amber Heard. Prawdopodobnie wszyscy pamiętają okoliczności tej sprawy, ale dla porządku przypomnijmy: w 2018 roku aktorka napisała dla „Washington Post” głośny felieton, w którym wyznała, że była ofiarą przemocy, zarówno psychicznej, jak i fizycznej. W tekście nie wymieniła nazwiska sprawcy, ale dla wszystkich oczywiste było, że mówiła o byłym mężu. Ten pozwał ekspartnerkę, a batalia sądowa, która rozpoczęła się w kwietniu bieżącego roku, nazywana jest przez media „procesem dekady”. Sprawa, relacjonowana na żywo przez media i szeroko komentowana w mediach społecznościowych została rozstrzygnięta na niekorzyść aktorki. 1 czerwca ława przysięgłych uznała, że Amber Heard jest winna zniesławienia Johnny'ego Deppa. Manson vs. Wood a Depp vs. Heard: co łączy te przypadki? Co łączy przypadek Mansona z historią Deppa? Choć zarzuty i okoliczności są zupełnie inne, istnieje wiele podobieństw – twierdzi autorka twittów, które od piątku rozpala internet do czerwoności. W szeregu wpisów dokonano porównania pozwu o zniesławienie, który Marilyn Manson złożył przeciw swojej byłej partnerce Evan Rachel Wood, ze sprawą Johnny'ego Deppa i Amber Heard. Przeprowadzona analiza daje podstawy, by sądzić, że prawne zwycięstwo Deppa stanowi „niebezpieczny precedens”, który mężczyźni oskarżeni o nadużycia wobec swoich partnerek, mogą wykorzystywać w sądzie. Zresztą od momentu ogłoszenia wyroku w sprawie Depp vs. Heard z wielu stron płyną głosy, że postanowienie sądu może być brzemienne w skutkach dla wielu kobiet. Jestem jeszcze bardziej rozczarowana tym, co ten werdykt oznacza dla innych kobiet. To pomyłka. Cofnęliśmy się do czasów, kiedy kobieta, która przemówiła i zabrała głos, mogła zostać publicznie zawstydzona i upokorzona. Decyzja sądu odsuwa ideę, że przemoc wobec kobiet należy traktować poważnie – komentowała sama zainteresowana orzeczenie przysięgłych. Czy faktycznie przewidywania znajdą pokrycie w rzeczywistości? Przekonamy się pewnie już niedługo, kiedy sprawa Manson vs. Wood trafi na wokandę.

The complaint accuses Wood and her “on-again, off-again” partner Ashley “Illma” Gore, of depicting him as “a rapist and abuser – a malicious falsehood that has derailed Warner’s successful music, TV, and film career.”Representatives for Wood and Gore did not respond to request for comment from Deadline, which first reported the and Gore appear in Phoenix Rising, a new documentary about Wood’s life and career that is scheduled to premiere on HBO this month. It also details Wood’s allegations against the documentary, Wood said that during a previously discussed “simulated sex scene” for the music video of Manson’s 2007 single Heart-Shaped Glasses, Manson “started penetrating me for real” and that she “had never agreed to that”.Wood said she was given absinthe on set, which affected her ability to refuse Manson’s alleged actions. Warner has denied raping Wood on the set of the music Wednesday’s filing, Manson accused Wood and Gore of “falsifying and spreading” allegations against him. He claims they pretended to be an FBI agent by “forging and distributing a fictitious letter from the agent, to create the false appearance” that Manson was under a federal criminal alleges that Wood and Gore “provided checklists and scripts to prospective accusers, listing the specific alleged acts of abuse that they should claim against Warner”.The suit accuses Gore of trying to obtain Manson’s login information to his computer, phone and email and claims that she created a fake email address to claim that Manson was sending pornography to addition to requesting a jury trial, Manson has accused Wood of inflicting emotional distress, violation of the Comprehensive Computer Data and Access Fraud Act, and impersonation over the a statement, Howard King, Manson’s attorney said: “Even though HBO and the producers have been made aware of these serious acts of misconduct, they have thus far chosen to proceed without regard for the facts. But the evidence of wrongdoing by Wood and Gore is irrefutable – and this legal action will hold them to account.” Evan Rachel Wood reached out to Amy J. Berg, the two had known each other for years, to document her experience creating The Phoenix Act. The act extends the statute of limitations for domestic violence cases in California. Production began in summer of 2020, as they began filming, Wood named Marilyn Manson her abuser. Release Fot. Sthanlee Mirador/Sipa USA/East News Aktorka w 2021 roku oskarżyła Mansona o dopuszczanie się wobec niej wielu aktów przemocy, przemocy seksualnej, a także uprawianie groomingu. Artysta stwierdził, że to wszystko są kłamstwa. Manson pozwał Evan Rachel Wood. Twierdzi, że sfałszowała dowodyMarilyn Manson postanowił pozwać Evan Rachel Wood. Aktorka oskarżyła go o wiele przestępstw natury seksualnej, znęcanie się fizyczne i psychiczne, czy grooming. Manson początkowo wystosowywał oświadczenia, w którym podważał jej słowa, a teraz postanowił oskarżyć ją o zniesławienie, a także fałszowanie dowodów - w tym listu od agenta CIA. Sprawa wpłynęła już do Sądu Najwyższego w Los Angeles i jak czytamy w pozwie złożonym przez Mansona i jego reprezentantów: Ta akcja wynika z bezpodstawnych i nielegalnych aktów dokonanych przez Evan Rachel Wood i jej partnerkę Ashley Gore/Illma Gore, które miały na celu pokazać Briana Warnera/Marilyna Mansona jako gwałciciela, stręczyciela - coś, co kompletnie zniszczyło pełną sukcesów karierę Mansona w muzyce, telewizji i filmach. Pozew ma trafić przed ławę przysięgłych. W nim, Manson i jego prawnicy oskarżają Wood i Gore o włamanie się do komputerów Mansona i "tworzenie fikcyjnego konta e-mail, z którego tworzyły dowody przeciwko Mansonowi".Kolejne oskarżenia są równie ciężkie - według nich, Wood i Gore podszywały się pod agenta Federal Bureau of Investigation w celu tworzenia fikcyjnych historii o tym, że domniemane ofiary Warnera były w niebezpieczeństwie. Jak w rozmowie z Deadline wyjawił główny prawnik Mansona, Howard King: Składamy ten pozew teraz, ponieważ zdołaliśmy znaleźć ogromną ilość dowodów - zarówno dokumentów, jak i opowieści świadków - które potwierdzają, że Evan Rachel Wood i Illma Gore fałszowały historie na temat mojego klienta. Następnie dodał: To niezwykle ważne, by nie łączyć ze sobą postaci Marilyna Mansona i Briana Warnera. Słowa Wood mogą rezonować z powodu "szokującej" postaci Marilyna Mansona, ale one nie są prawdziwe. Prawnicy Wood na razie nie odpowiedzieli na pozew Mansona.

The "Wrapped in Plastic
The actor Evan Rachel Wood has, again, spoken out publicly about surviving an abusive relationship. And this time, she's naming names: The man she says groomed and abused her is washed-up Goth-rock dork Brian Warner, who prefers to be known as Marilyn Manson. Multiple other women have now spoken out, too, detailing horrifying allegations of when all the evidence was right there in front of our faces, did the music industry let him get away with his violent, narcissistic misogyny for so long?Hopefully no one in the music industry has the nerve to feign surprise. Manson himself told us everything we needed to know long ago. So why, when all the evidence was right there in front of our faces, did the music industry let him get away with his violent, narcissistic misogyny for so long?Want more articles like this? Follow THINK on Instagram to get updates on the week's most important cultural analysisThat Manson was reported to be Wood's abuser is one the worst-kept secrets in the music industry. Wood has repeatedly opened up about the abuse she has suffered in her life, and while she didn't name anyone, it didn't take Olivia Benson-level investigative skills to hypothesize whom she might be talking about. Wood testified before the California Senate that the man who abused her began grooming her when she was just 18. She said he physically abused her, deprived her of sleep, starved her and stalked her when she tried to leave him, calling her incessantly, she are more than just breadcrumbs: Woods began publicly dating Manson when she was just 19 and he was 36. Yes, love comes in many different forms, but we should all pause and frankly worry when we see a fully grown man dating a teenager — especially when the man begins to speak about all of the ways he manipulates, demeans and harms Manson did just that. For more than a decade, he has been upfront about his misogyny and abusive behavior. In a 2009 interview with Spin magazine, conducted shortly after his breakup with Wood, Manson said he called Wood 158 times while self-mutilating and then blamed her for it. "I wanted to show her the pain she put me through," Manson said. "It was like, 'I want you to physically see what you've done.'"That lines up with Wood's account of an abusive man who refused to let her leave. And even if it didn't, Manson was telling on himself: Self-harming and then blaming someone else is a classically manipulative Manson didn't stop there. He told the Spin magazine writer — in an interview that one imagines he hoped Wood would read — that he fantasized about murdering her. "The song 'I Want to Kill You Like They Do in the Movies' is about my fantasies," Manson said. "I have fantasies every day about smashing her skull in with a sledgehammer."Somehow, that wasn't enough to make all of the adults in the room — the music journalists and editors, the record company executives and the radio DJs — pause and ask themselves why they were continuing to promote such a dangerous man.(In 2020, Manson's team told the music blog Metal Hammer that his 2009 Spin interview shouldn't be taken literally: "The comments in Spin where Manson had a fantasy of using a sledgehammer on Evan ... was obviously a theatrical rock star interview promoting a new record, and not a factual account.")It's always been easier, it seems, to write Manson off as a joke. He is, after all, a grown adult who dresses up in white face paint and stylized contact lenses to make himself appear threatening, whose song lyrics include the trying-to-shock drivel one might expect from an angsty teen. He and his bandmates named themselves after serial killers — edgy! It would all be supremely embarrassing behavior from a teenager, let alone a man who is now well into middle the theatrics also give him an excuse for very real bad behavior. Manson may be a cringey attention-seeker, but that doesn't make his alleged treatment of Wood (or of the other women who say he abused them) any less harmful. And it doesn't make the entertainment industry's decision to ignore his comments any less harmful to women of the men felled by the #MeToo movement were highly effective at hiding their true colors. They supported progressive and feminist causes. They said all the right things about women in the workplace. They were outwardly respectable, stand-up guys who used that facade to conceal their bad if a man wears silly makeup and puts on an aggressive stage persona, women and girls still absolutely have the right to safety and Manson. He was outwardly misogynistic. He spoke openly about at least some of the ways he may have abused, threatened and harassed Wood. And maybe that was part of the problem: Even though Wood was barely out of childhood when she met Manson, perhaps people assumed she knew what she was getting into. This "what did you expect?" reaction is one of the many ways we shame women into staying in abusive situations and make it harder for them to speak about their experiences if they do leave. Because even if a man wears silly makeup and puts on an aggressive stage persona, women and girls still absolutely have the right to safety and was a teenager dating a man whom millions of people listened to and admired, even after he went on ugly sexist rants ("If you wanna get a man, spread your legs," he said his father taught him. "And if you wanna keep a man, shut your f---ing mouth"), punched a woman in the head during a show, boasted about buying high heels for his infant goddaughter, claimed to have put his gun in a journalist's mouth and publicly fantasized about bashing Wood's head in. Magazines interviewed him. MTV and radio stations put his videos and songs on heavy rotation. Agents, bookers and producers worked with him. Even after his bad behavior could no longer be denied, nearly everyone surrounding him broadcast one clear message: This is wasn't OK, and it was Wood and the other women Manson is accused of abusing who say they paid the price. Now, finally, Manson's label has dropped him. But while his powerful longtime enablers are finally recognizing that Manson is the villain in this story, they're conveniently dodging responsibility.

Marilyn Manson has filed a lawsuit against Evan Rachel Wood for defamation over the actor’s sexual abuse allegations against him. Manson, the American “shock rocker” born Brian Warner, filed Fucking good. Like, even if there WAS any truth to her claims, WHY WOULD THEY LIE ABOUT ANYTHING? The sheer fact that they not only lied about this, but several other accusations that can be easily disproven by 60 seconds on Google really takes a steaming shit on any form of credibility they may try to is what I’ve been saying from the very beginning- albeit more humble and open. Oh but any questions, concerns, observations, or even pointing out inconsistencies or disagreements automatically renders one an apologist, misogynist, abuser, or all of the above. Even if the facts come out entirely in Manson’s favor, ERW and her gaggle of idiots have hooked so many people in with a compelling emotional story loaded with a healthy helping of taboo subject matter to please people’s morbid curiosity, and potentially give them something to project their own experiences on. Facts? Research? Using more than one brain cell? Nah, only apologists or abusers do that.
