'People who grew up watching 'Even Stevens' don’t realize there was a totally different reality he was living in.'
HAR’EL: And he found me. He bought the DVD because it looked interesting, and then reached out through my website.HAR’EL: Yeah! Really surprised. I remember people being like, “It’s probably not him, it’s just like some kind of joke.” But it was him, and we went to get dinner. At dinner we realized that both of our fathers are alcoholics. We spoke a lot about addiction and growing up under that. What it does to relationships and perpetuating pain. It was the beginning of what led to this film.
HAR’EL: Yeah, right after we made my film he got arrested and was court ordered to go to a rehab facility, where he was diagnosed with severe PTSD and was ordered to do exposure therapy. That involved writing all of his memories from his time as a child actor on the Disney Channel showHAR’EL: As both. We started working on it while he was in rehab. Three weeks after he got out, we were already diving into pre-production.
don’t realize there was a totally different reality he was living in. I think the film will give people insight into that reality.I hired twigs because she’s an incredible performer and artist. I looked for someone with a body of work that had an otherworldly quality. I was looking for somebody that can inhabit both the mother and the whore. I felt that she could bring something to it that nobody else could.Has Shia’s father seen the film? He fled the U.S. a couple years ago to avoid arrest. What does he think of Shia’s portrayal of him?Before we made the film, Shia went to South America, where he’s living, to read him the script and get his approval. When we finished the movie, Shia screened it for him. I received a really beautiful note from him.
