“Justice,” a documentary that delves into sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, was secretly in the works for more than a year before it was added as…
Doug Liman directed the film, which premiered on Friday at Park City’s Park Avenue Theatre. Like many Americans, he vividly remembers watching Christine Blasey Ford, who accused Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her when they were high schoolers in the early ’80s, testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2018. Three additional women later accused Kavanaugh of misconduct .
Liman believes “the FBI investigation into Brett Kavanaugh fell woefully short.” His documentary features new evidence and key interviews with subjects who were closely involved in the allegations, including Kavanaugh’s former Yale classmate Deborah Ramirez. She alleged that Kavanaugh exposed himself to her and forced himself onto her at a dorm party in the early 1980s.“This was the kind of movie where people are terrified,” Liman said.
Liman admits he doesn’t know the kind of recourse he expects to follow the film’s premiere. “For me, I feel like the job ends with the film and what happens after is beyond my control,” he said. “My thinking hasn’t gone beyond the film.” One revelation in the documentary alleges the FBI received tips that corroborated evidence to Ford and Ramirez’ accounts. Another piece of new information details a third incident that was submitted to the FBI by a former Yale classmate — attorney Max Stier — who claims he witnessed Kavanaugh force himself upon a female student at a dorm party.
