Kevin Spacey Startles Museum Crowd with Bizarre Poetry Reading: \u2018The More You\u2019re Wounded the Greater You Are\u2019 \u2014 WATCH<\/b><\/p>\n

Kevin Spacey made his first public appearance since sexual assault charges against him were dropped in July<\/a> because his accuser refused to waive his 5th Amendment rights.<\/p>\n

In his most bizarre piece of theater since he challenged the Nantucket sexual assault allegations\u00a0in a weird video<\/a>\u00a0titled \u201cLet Me Be Frank\u201d uploaded to an unverified YouTube account in late December, Spacey treated a museum crowd to a dramatic reading that nobody asked for, after tipping off a few journalists that he would be doing it.<\/p>\n

The Telegraph<\/em> reports<\/a>: \u201cSpacey appeared in front of the Greek statue Boxer at Rest in Rome, to read Gabriele Tinti\u2019s poem The Boxer, about an exhausted fighter used for entertainment then left bleeding by the ringside. \u2026 Standing beside the Greek bronze cast of the ravaged fighter, which dates from around 316 BC, Spacey, dressed in a tobacco-coloured suit, intoned the poem to a startled audience at the Palazzo Massimo alle Terme.\u201d<\/p>\n

The poem contains the lines \u201cThe more you\u2019re wounded the greater you are. And the more empty you are. I have endured no end of sleepless nights. I have spent hours and hours sweating to destroy and fall,\u201d and \u201cThey used me for their entertainment, fed on shoddy stuff. Life was over in a moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

In November 2018, an\u00a0allegation against Spacey by actor Anthony Rapp<\/a>\u00a0snowballed into an avalanche of similar accusations including filmmaker Tony Montana, who said that Spacey\u00a0groped him in public<\/a>\u00a0in 2003, and the actor\u00a0Roberto Cavazos<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That was followed by an as yet unnamed man<\/a>\u00a0who claimed Spacey raped him at 15<\/a>, the aforementioned sexual assault claim from 2017 on the island of Nantucket, and\u00a08 crew members on\u00a0House of Cards<\/em><\/a>\u00a0who said they were harassed by Spacey as well as a London bartender who said\u00a0Spacey flashed him and then tried to shut him up<\/a>\u00a0with an expensive watch. Fellow actor Guy Pearce also said\u00a0Spacey had once been<\/a>\u00a0\u201chandsy\u201d with him.<\/p>\n

Spacey was subsequently\u00a0dumped by his agency, CAA, his publicist Polaris,\u00a0<\/a>and also\u00a0by Netflix<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In July 2018,\u00a0it emerged<\/a>\u00a0that\u00a0London\u2019s Metropolitan Police were investigating three new claims of sexual assault by Spacey. Those investigations are continuing.<\/p>\n
