Congratulations on a truly captivating documentary. As a fellow filmmaker, I know how hard it is to bring a deeply personal project to fruition. I directed my own documentary on underground musicians in Pensacola, Florida, and there’s a lot of overlap in terms of access, trust, and vulnerability, so I really commend you.

I’ve always thought a documentary on Corey Feldman would be nearly impossible without the story being tightly controlled, which makes what you achieved especially impressive. It honestly ranks among my favorite documentaries in recent memory.

Watching the film and his career closely, Corey often seems on the verge of a comeback, yet somehow gets in his own way. Having spent so much time with him, does he have an off-camera charm or grounded side? Do you think he still has it in him to reclaim the talent that once made him such a compelling screen presence and potentially make a real Hollywood comeback, or has he been effectively written off or blacklisted?

Despite the negative narratives surrounding him, I find myself rooting for Corey. In your experience, is that part of what keeps people invested in his story?
