An effigy of Hollywood movie producer Harvey Weinstein is set to feel the heat at a bonfire celebration in southeast England this weekend. A 36-foot-high statue of the mogul, who faces mounting allegations of sexual assault and harassment, will burn in the Kent town of Edenbridge on Saturday night, according to planners. Bonfire organizers across the United Kingdom traditionally burn an effigy of Catholic rebel Guy Fawkes close to Nov. 5 to mark his failed 1605 “Gunpowder Plot” to blow up Parliament and murder King James I.
