I have read the "flogged like a dead horse" threads on the faked Moon landing and whether Stanley Kubrick had a hand in this. I was watching Wag The
Dog the other night and watching Dustin's character, modeled after a Robert Evans persona, and I wondered whose story may have really been told. If
you were the producer of an event as spectacular as a fake war, a moon landing, a meteor collision or something on that scale, what would it take to
keep you quiet? At what point would the need to share your excellence and skill overtake your desire for money and power. I guess many of us on this
board won't ever get close enough to that opportunity to answer the question honestly, but hypothetically...could any of you go through life carrying
a secret like that? Would you try to embed secrets or trails to your stories in all your future films as some suggest is done? Would you try to tell
the truth, an absurb in your face unbelievable truth, and dare the establishment to silence you? It would really take a reclusive, private producer,
director or cinematographer like Kubrick to pull off something like that. I think that it was Ben Franklin who said "a secret kept between three men,
as long as two of them are dead." Thoughts?
Which producers or film-makers besides Kubrick do you think could be involved to this extent and trying to tell us their story? Oliver Stone? Tom
"Nut Job" Cruise? Others
