A number of mainstream entertainment websites are reporting that the January 2017 iteration of the Sundance Film Festival will include “Nobody Speak,” a documentary about the Hulk Hogan-Gawker lawsuit and trial as a featured film. (In the interest of full disclosure, I’m interviewed in the movie.) Here’s the blurb that Sundance sent out:
NOBODY SPEAK: Hulk Hogan, Gawker and Trials of a Free Press / U.S.A. (Director: Brian Knappenberger) — The trial between Hulk Hogan and Gawker Media pitted privacy rights against freedom of the press, and raised important questions about how big money can silence media. This film is an examination of the perils and duties of the free press in an age of inequality. World Premiere
Brian Knappenberger, the director, is best known for having previously helmed “The Internet’s Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz” and “We Are Legion: The Story of the Hacktivists” as well as his work on various TV docs-series. There is no word yet as to when and where the film will be available for viewing after Sundance.
