Oliver Stone responds to Melissa Gilbert sexual harassment claim
Melissa Gilbert
Director Oliver Stone hit back at  Melissa Gilbert 's sexual harassment claim  saying that  she  was well aware of the raunchy nature of the film when  she  agreed to audition.
 Gilbert   53  accused the director of sexual harassment Monday  claiming that Stone purposely humiliated  her  during a 1991 audition for "The Doors" by forcing  her  to stage an explicit scene as retaliation for embarrassing him "in a social situation."
Stone  however  told the Daily News in a statement that  Gilbert  would have been fully aware of the scene's contents before  she  auditioned  and that  he  also had  his  casting director on hand to ensure a safe environment.

 She  also denied any claim that Stone  71  purposely targeted  Gilbert .
"Every actor who auditioned came in voluntarily and was aware of the provocative material prior to engaging in their scenes "  she  said. "No actor was forced or expected to do anything that might have been uncomfortable  and most actors embraced the challenged  recognizing Oliver Stone's vision and the creative process. In my experience  there was no attempt to personally offend any particular actor."
 Gilbert  told Cohen that  she  refused Stone's alleged request  and left crying.  She  was auditioning for the role of Pamela Courson  which eventually went to Meg Ryan.
