I remember saying to my agent, "Listen, everybody's going out to Hollywood and making movies. I think I ought to go out there." And his advice to me was, "I wouldn't do that if I were you. If they want you in Hollywood, they'll send you." And sure enough, they did.

I did not assault women. I did not offer employment or advancement in exchange for sex. Any suggestion that I did so is completely false.
