Alec Baldwin makes amends with Harvey Weinstein

Written by . Published: May 27 2012

Alec Baldwin has made amends with Harvey Weinstein by sending him a handwritten note of apology following a falling out at the Cannes Film Festival in France.


The 30 Rock star is said to have criticized the movie mogul in a scathing rant at a Cannes party earlier this month (May12), calling Weinstein a "d**che bag".


Baldwin subsequently stepped down from presenting a charity auction an amfAR charity event on Thursday (24May12), which Weinstein was co-hosting.


However, the pair has now put the feud behind them after Baldwin apologized to Weinstein in a note, which read, "HW, my apology to you and congratulations on a successful event," according to the New York Post.


Baldwin's publicist Matthew Hiltzik tells The Hollywood Reporter, "This non-issue has been resolved. The film (Baldwin is making at Cannes) and the fundraising are far more important and interesting than this."


Weinstein adds in a statement, "Alec couldn't have been more gracious. We all lose our tempers sometime; trust me I have, too. We all appreciated his generosity to everyone at amfAR."
