Thank you so much for posting this! The last thing they want in the prison system is for rich well-educated people to come in there and start telling the truth about the prison system.
andi toja kinda like if James Cameron had stayed with Terminator and Aliens. McTiernan made Hunt For Red October but the next few Jack Ryan films were quite good Clear and Present Danger and Patriot Games. Sum of All Fears was good too.
Excellent filmmaker who got caught up in the system. He probably should have gotten probation, but I admit I don't know all the facts of his case. I remember reading about Pellicano and when Mctiernan's name came up his it just always felt to me. Hope he gets back to work because he knows how to make quality films. What he's gone through will embitter mostly everyone. Hope he can manage those feelings and stay positive going forward.
I never was aware of his name just the films. I was driven to him by a tweet that included him on a list of directors that made at least three classic hit films. Stunned to hear his revelation about mass incarceration and racism, the new Jim Crow, a “giant deregistration machine”
We need many more people with monetary clout and a big audience to wake up and get angry. I never understood the war on drugs. Why not a war on pedophiles? Or a war on poverty? A war against starvation? A war against corporate greed? Fuck, we are all ruled by a fleet do assholes.
I want this Predator director John Mctiernan back to direct Predator prequel movies starting with skulls just like Ridley Scott did with the Alien prequel movies and he will continue.
One of the greatest action film directors of all time.

This was the FBI's revenge for getting blown up in Die Hard.
"The war on drugs and the prison industrial complex are a giant voter deregistration machine."
-John McTiernan dropping truth bombs.
It’s also a war on cash.
Dropping some truth bombs right there
I'm surprised Cnn would cover something like this, nice reporting Bill.

At his age with his intellect it is frightening that these ideas had never occurred to him. The power of propaganda.
FBI or cops ask you a question, no matter how seemingly innocuous , invoke your 5th amendment right to stay silent.
Think of how good the following franchises would be if had stayed in control of them, Die Hard, Jack Ryan, Predator

Thank you John for making that public..love you man!
Well, atleast he's slowly getting back to directing.

I really want him to make movies again.
Truth teller! Truth teller!
A genius. Love his work. Not many people can make films that people want to watch over and over.

Wow, CNN great video, speaks the truth finally!
Someone should make a movie about Anthony Pellicano.

He alreay get out prison but he doesnt have some offer work because conflict about work
I'd love it if he directed DIE HARD VI and end the series on a high note.
I mean that's sounds crazy. I would just hole myself up in Montana too away from the BS
I want this Predator director John Mctiernan back to direct Predator prequel movies starting with skulls just like Ridley Scott did with the Alien prequel movies and he will continue.
