About an hour after his star turn at the Jan. 6 committee's first public hearing, a British filmmaker walked into an Irish bar and immediately got recognized.
WASHINGTON — About an hour after his star turn at the Jan. 6 committee's first public hearing, a"You're that guy," said a man behind the bar who had just seen Nick QuestedThe bar is popular with police officers — memorabilia on display includes signed car doors removed from law enforcement patrol vehicles — and the man was grateful for what Quested had done to tell the story of what happened on Jan. 6.
“You feel the power of Congress. It’s obvious, it’s serious, and it’s important,” he said. “It was a privilege to testify in this way, and I think it’s important that they find the truth.” The documentarian captured footage of Tarrio meeting with Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes in an underground garage the night before Jan. 6, as well as footage of Proud Boys on the front lines of the Capitol attack.Quested — an Emmy Award-winning filmmaker who directed a number of music videos before moving into the documentary space — recounted how he was able to build a rapport with the Proud Boys despite strong disagreements with his subjects.
While the Proud Boys"certainly showed no interest" in then-President Donald Trump's rally near the White House, Quested said he"hadn't really envisioned there was anything more sinister at the time."
