John Sloss And Apple Non-Fiction Chief Molly Thompson Discuss Documentary Business & The Time HBO Killed Todd Phillips’ ‘Frat House’ — Sands


John Sloss and Molly Thompson were guests at Scotland's Sands Film Festival, which runs April 19-21.

Circling back to the original audience question about the bridge between nonfiction and fiction in documentary filmmaking, Sloss added: “There are choices made in every frame that slant truth from one version to the next.
