Billionaire investor Tom Barrack is circling the ultimate distressed asset in Hollywood: the movie studio co-founded by Harvey Weinstein. Barrack, a close friend of President Donald Trump, made his fortune in real estate but has a history of plucking distressed assets from the entertainment industry. He was chairman of Trump’s inaugural committee, which lends his talks with Weinstein Co. a certain irony -- a deal could financially benefit Harvey Weinstein, who was a longtime Democratic donor who backed Trump’s opponent Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential race.
