Kavanaugh Doc Director Laughably Plays Victim Card
The Sundance Film Festival went woke, but that’s not the biggest problem with the once-mighty gala.
It also lost its nerve.
Variety reported this week that Sundance Festival was being held in the United States. no longer screen films that might upset the woke mob. So, if a filmmaker submitted a documentary defending conservative Justice Brett Kavanaugh, for example, it would never grace the festival’s lineup.
The woke mob would rise up, and the festival would swiftly back down no matter the film’s quality.
However, the opposite documentary is perfectly acceptable.
“This was the kind of movie where people are terrified,” Director Doug Liman spoke about his documentary on Brett Kavanaugh. “I mean, the fact is the people that chose to participate in the movie are heroes.” https://t.co/nOrrXlWq6P

“Justice,” Doug Liman, action director, has a secret project (“Edge of Tomorrow”), just debuted at Robert Redford’s festival. Critics say the film is a biased look at sexual assault allegations made against Kavanaugh in his 2018 confirmation hearings.
It remains one of America’s most scandalous chapters. The mainstream media showed its true colors, ignoring inconvenient truths that damaged Kavanaugh’s accusers while promoting baseless conspiracy theories.
Alternative media outlets shredded key accuser Christine Blasey Ford’s story, but that didn’t stop journalists or late night satirists from seizing on false narratives.
Liman says he did it because he needed to operate in secret lest mysterious forces prevent the film’s completion.
“The machinery that’s put into place against anyone that speaks up… we knew that machinery would be turned on us,” Liman. “The film wouldn’t have been shown at Sundance, there would have been an injunction” It was leaked before anyone knew.
It’s laughable on its face.
Who didn’t speak up back in 2018 on the matter? Everyone spoke out, from the farcical accusers to celebs like Amy Schumer, who were arrested to draw attention to this case.
The claims that the FBI helped smooth Kavanaugh’s confirmation process by ignoring select confessions is beyond parody.
Recent years have shown beyond a shadow of a doubt the FBI wouldn’t lift a finger to help President Donald Trump. They might give oxygen to a phony Russian collusion hoax, but they wouldn’t ignore damning evidence against his preferred Supreme Court nominee.
Sundance would have to screen the film if it was put under pressure. What would the Hollywood community say? “Justice?” Could we witness activists storming the theatre?
It’s telling and predictable that the film was shown to packed audiences without any blowback.
The one-sided “Justice,” critics call preaching to a choir.acks a smoking gun-style revelation?, most likely didn’t include this snippet:
In a speech earlier this year, Ford’s attorney Debra Katz admitted to the partisanship that at least in part motivated her client: They wanted to put an “asterisk” His name is next to it. “When he takes a scalpel to Roe v. Wade,” She said: “we will know who he is, we know his character, and we know what motivates him, and that is important; it is important that we know, and that is part of what motivated Christine.”
Or any other The Federalist’s 21 reasons not to trust Ford’s account. Number 5 is a snoozer:
“Ford’s Father Supported Kavanaugh’s Confirmation”
Liman is entitled to direct films like this one. “Justice,” No matter how ridiculously biased they may be. Michael Moore has earned a good living by telling the truth through documentaries. He’s even got an Oscar for his troubles.
It’s a shame that no one has made a fair, accurate documentary about Kavanaugh. It would not be screened at Sundance if they did.
