Amy Berg, the Oscar-nominated director of Deliver Us from Evil and West of Memphis, has a couple new films this year, one the thriller Every Secret Thing starring Dakota Fanning and the other An Open Secret, a documentary investigating accusations of teenagers being sexually abused within the film industry. Today the first trailer for the latter has dropped and it looks like a stunner.
The film first screened at DOC NYC last November to high marks as it profiles the stories of five men, Evan H., Nick S., James G., Chris T. and Michael Egan, whose name you’ll recognize as he accused Bryan Singer (X-Men: Apocalypse) of sexual abuse dropped in August.
I’d be shocked to see this one among the contenders for Best Documentary at next year’s Oscars, but, if it lives up to the hype, I’d be ecstatic to see it make the list.
Rocky Mountain Pictures will be releasing the film on June 5 and it looks like one that will definitely generate some conversation. Watch the trailer below.
