00:00Why I'm telling a story nobody else is telling is as clear as I don't have any reserve, like the fear that they would actually have towards him. I don't think he's special.
00:15My goal was to build a piece that's award-winning, exciting, you know, really artistically put together well. And Alex was the right choice. Like I sought out the right director to build the project and then kind of leave it in her hands in that way.
00:39But I did use my presence in culture to get people to participate with it.
00:47So there's a lot of people in this docuseries that wasn't in the previous docs that you saw because they said, no, I'm going to do that one because 50, that's going to be the big one.
00:57Because I'm not scared of none of that. Like, you know, you know, I think it's just the way I was brought up.
01:06I don't really register those, like, those things. I've been doing way more extreme things than these people.
01:16I just, you know, I look at the project. It's just another project to me, you know, and they can look and create reasoning for it.
01:24They can be their personal take on why it's the way it is. But if they watch the docuseries itself, they understand it's been done tastefully and it is the best version of a docuseries that you'll see on this.
01:36Well, he is a big part of the culture. Like, he's a, well, a respectable, he made it to a respectable position in the culture.
01:46Any smart person would pick their fights and you say, I don't really get anything out of it. It's not my business anyway. So then why say something about it?
01:55Like, the docuseries is me putting together people who had different experiences and letting them tell them they're true. Right. And a lot of things come out that make clarity for you in a different way to it.
02:07But I only was comfortable saying stuff about him because I've been saying it for 20 years. I've said it since that day, that day. I'm like, what? Nah.
02:15I think that, you know, the footage that we were able to procure from his last days before the arrest and the indictment was watching that for the first time was explosive.
02:29You know, there were lots of it all happened very quickly and there were lots of phone calls going on and trying to figure out what what was in there.
02:37And I think what was exciting as a filmmaker was that I wasn't looking, you know, the film is not about like, let's just just have, you know, one allegation after another.
02:50And I don't really think that there's story in that. I think context is everything. And context to the story was what was missing, I think, you know, for both of us.
02:58And in that footage, it just it felt like you were just like with him, you know, and it's like very like with this very intense time in his life and you were getting a peek into, you know, what was going on, you know, behind closed doors.
03:15And that was really fascinating.
03:17A journalist would ask that, but a journalist would also say, I'm going to keep my sources secure, you know, but I got it, you know, they can blame it on me that it's there.
03:29I think he's going to actually like the project. He's going to see that it was done for the perspective because he's going to see too many people and all he'll be consumed by what his personal experience was with each individual.
03:46They're saying things about him because he lived these things. She's going to understand it. You can interview her following that and we'll I'll do the interview with her. I'll make sure I put it together.
03:57Yeah, because I had communications with her, but like to understand it, what's going on, even though like she's not in the docu-series, it was important.
04:06I spoke to her to understand how things transpired. The husband, I spoke to him away from her, separate individual communications in there.
04:15See the things kind of match up. Like when people say things like, oh, okay, I hear what you said, but you hear things multiple times from people, different people, it kind of makes true to you.
04:25He got old real fast. His hair was jet black, like mine. And the next day, he was like a full, all I saw from him was the raccoon pictures from the courtroom.
04:36When they drew him, it was looking to look like a raccoon. That's it. Like I was like, when did this f***ing hit? When did this happen?
04:43When did this happen? No, not in entertainment. Yeah.
04:47I think that this docu-series is not going to do that to him. I think that the lawsuits will finish off his finances.
04:58And then you won't be able to, you know, recover from that. He won't even be done with those lawsuits by the time he come home.
05:03They'll still be at, you know, it's like 80 lawsuits in there. That's why I didn't understand why there was no filing for bankruptcy.
05:10At least it would have stopped the lawyers from taking for bono cases because, you know, they, the sharks, they smell the blood in the water.
05:20When they see somebody that has deep pockets, they go in and filing Cassie in $20 million or $30 million, then should have filed bankruptcy right there.
05:30I don't think it's changed anything. I think it's less parties. Yeah, less parties.
