WE're in California, guys. WElcome Back to Hollywood.
I made this film by myself. IT was my 2nd feature-length documentary. I obtained permission before I started production.
I wrote, coordinated, shot, directed, and edited this entire film. I have nothing to do with the production or editing of the music videos that are created as a part of the event.
The host of the event, Bill Streeter, and his best friend Matt McBride, who happens to be the attorney I embarrassed, had some plot that failed miserably and they ruined the release of this movie and the release a much larger movie about the famous artist Harry Weber. They thought that since my agreement with Streeter was verbal, they would be able to steal the project from me, but all of the labor, writing, production, and editing was done by me so IT was a massive failure that cost me a promising career as a film Director and humiliated themselves in the process.
As unfortunate as that is, the movie about Harry Weber still FoUnd a home with an educational distributor despite not getting the release IT deserved.
These people attacked my family, my reputation, and my career. I sued them because Bill Streeter filed 3 FALSE DMCA notices that Misrepresented his ownership of anything in the film. See, once he gave me permission to make the film and use the videos from the event, he no longer controlled those "Copies" that I edited into a feature-length film.
But St Louis is known for IT's history of mafia wannabes and that's exactly what "Bugsy Mac" McBride and Streeter are.
Despite their failure to revive the 1930's, I made a damn good film about some really sh*tty people and this film will now be available for free to watch on YouTube and there isn't a single thing Bill or Bugsy can do about IT.
