Two of the five women accusing actor James Franco of sexual misconduct spoke to Good Morning AmericaTuesday about their experiences with him. Sarah Tither-Kaplan recalled specifics of Franco allegedly abusing his position of power as an instructor and erotice اÙلام Ù…ØØ§Ø±Ù…blurring lines with sex scenes.
“A lot of the times they seemed gratuitous or exploitative,” she said.
Additionally, Violet Paley had a message for the Disaster Artistdirector: "Please just apologize," she said.

“James is absolutely not a Harvey Weinstein, he is not an unfeeling monster who has no sense of reality,” she told GMA. “He created exploitative environments for non-celebrity women on his sets. I also think James is a very talented and valuable person. It’s a pyramid, and at the top is rape and sexual violence and at the bottom are the other abuses of power…that continue to build and build and build and create a culture that allows the most heinous examples of sexual violence and misogyny and discrimination to happen. So if we allow any of them, we’re allowing all of them.”
To that end, she clarified the power imbalance between Franco, an established actor, and his students in a classroom environment or on a film set.
“James abused his power by exploiting the non-celebrity women that he worked with under the guise of giving them opportunities,” Tither-Kaplan told GMA. “Being an actor and a filmmaker and working in the industry has been my dream since I was like maybe five or six and I knew that by coming forward I was risking my career.”

“I’m regretful, I was young, he was a celebrity I looked up to,” Paley said.
Franco himself responded to the allegations in late night appearances. Though he denies the extent of his accusers' allegations, he said that he does not wish to silence any victims (his sister-in-law Alison Brie said the same).
