Doc Talk Podcast Dissects Ezra Edelman’s Criticism Of Netflix For Axing His Prince Project, Plus ‘WTO/99’ Filmmakers On The Battle Of Seattle
Deadline's Doc Talk podcast dissects what Ezra Edelman said about Netflix's decision to abandon his Prince documentary series.
It’s a moment-to-moment capture of what happened when the World Trade Organization came to Seattle in 1999 for an annual meeting, and protesters – tens of thousands of them – attempted to disrupt the event. WTO/99, which just held its world premiere at the True/False Film Fest in Columbia, MO, shows the emergence of a political movement that would become key, decades later, to Donald Trump’s rise – against globalism and wary that free trade would come at the expense of American jobs. That’s on the latest episode of Doc Talk, hosted by Oscar winner Ridley ( 12 Years a Slave, Shirley) and Carey, Deadline’s documentary editor.
