Deborah Goldstein, a 31-year-old graduate student in social work, created the shirts, which sell for $25.Despite her current academic path, Ms. Goldstein is no film-industry naÃf; she used to work for Jason Kliot and Joana Vicente¬s Open City Films.But, she said, the shirts were born of a whim.
"I was literally just watching the Golden Globes with some friends, and everybody kept thanking Harvey Weinstein," said Ms. Goldstein."Not to mention at the SAG Awards!"Ms. Goldstein was talking about the hefty number of Miramax performers who thanked Mr. Weinstein at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, which were held on March 9.

"So far, there are only about 10 of the shirts in existence," said Ms. Goldstein, who added that she¬s given a few away to friends, including Three Seasons director Tony Bui.

"I thought he¬d be afraid to wear it, but he said he liked it," said Ms. Goldstein, who has just created a Web site, www.misswit.net, which suggests that if you wear "The Weinstein Shirt" to your Oscars party, "You will be the life of the party˜without a doubt!"
