Ep. 177 skewers media narratives with razor-sharp satire, from Trump’s $400M Iran "ransom" to Clinton’s shifting blame on Powell over her email server while Uma Abedin edited a misogynistic Islamic journal. It mocks Target’s $20M transgender restroom policy and Caitlin Jenner’s canceled show as cultural battles, then pivots to Sausage Party as a metaphor for societal collapse—all while framing Hell or High Water as the rare film exposing bank predation. The episode ends with a pitch for the host’s memoir, weaving cynicism into a critique of both parties’ hypocrisy. [Automatically generated summary]
Before returning to work after the Clavenless weekend, I always take the time to research the news in order to find out what's been going on while I was receiving my regenerative youth transfusions and disposing of the bodies of the virgins.
Here's a summary of what I learned from my deep study of mainstream media news sources.
The mainstream media report that there's been flooding in Louisiana.
And unlike President George W. Bush, who did not rush to Louisiana during Hurricane Katrina because he didn't care about black people, President Obama did not rush to Louisiana because he didn't want to cause traffic jams and distract from rescue efforts.
Donald Trump rushed to Louisiana because he's a heartless grandstander who'll use even a fatal disaster to get himself on television.
Whereupon Obama decided to rush to Louisiana because he's a sensitive leader who cares so very deeply about the American people, now that his summer vacation is over.
Hillary Clinton didn't rush to Louisiana because she just wasn't feeling up to it.
Not that she's sick or anything.
She's totally not, totally.
She just needs a little rest.
Totally well.
As if Trump's actions handing out relief materials to flood victims weren't disgusting enough, the billionaire went on to make racist remarks, pointing out that black Americans under Democratic leadership have poor schools, low employment, and dangerous neighborhoods.
This was an outrageously cruel statement to make about a disadvantaged segment of our society already suffering from poor schools, low employment, and dangerous neighborhoods.
Trump continues to use hateful, racist, violent rhetoric to incite his crappy cracker followers who deserve to be killed.
In other mainstream media news, it at first seemed the Obama administration did not give $400 million to the terrorist state of Iran as ransom because that would only encourage Iran to kidnap more Americans.
But then, luckily, it turned out the money was ransom because the administration had courageously set Americans free in a canny-negotiated settlement.
Trump's former campaign manager was revealed to have taken money from the Ukraine because of his dark, sinister ties to Russian leader Vladimir Putin, whereas Hillary Clinton was revealed to have taken money from the Ukraine because of the charitable work done by the Clinton Foundation.
Finally, the mainstream media revealed that there was absolutely no hack of documents from the not at all sinister billionaire George Soros, who was therefore not revealed to have funneled money to the non-hateful, non-violent Black Lives Matter groups.
The absolutely, totally unmalevolent Soros was also not shown in the not hacked emails not to have pressured the Obama administration into taking even more completely non-threatening Syrian refugees.
Obviously, if anything else had happened, it would have been reported, which it wasn't anywhere, which is totally non-sinister, like Soros.
I hope this little summary gives you some sense of the deep research that goes into our show as we gather all the weekend reporting of the mainstream media together in one place.
Also, it's cheaper than buying real toilet paper.
Trigger warning, I'm Andrew Clavin, and this is the Andrew Clavin Show.
I love this flooding thing where Obama is playing golf while the people in Louisiana drown.
A Non-Apology Apology00:14:49
And it's so good of him.
It's so generous of him, you know.
And then, you know, Trump goes there and he hands out Plato to the children.
They've lost everything.
He gives them a little toy.
It's like, what do they ain't Plato for?
What's the matter?
This guy's terrible.
Anyway, we're back.
We're back.
It's the Clavenless weekend is over.
It's time to sweep up, bury the bodies, rebuild the cities and all this.
And we're on with you here on Facebook and YouTube for 15 minutes.
And then we'll wink out and suddenly you'll be plunged back into darkness.
But you can come to the Daily Wire, download us on iTunes or SoundCloud.
And if you subscribe on Wednesday, we can include your questions in the mailbag.
I keep getting these questions on Twitter and email, and they keep saying, couldn't you ask this on your show?
No.
Part with your lousy eight bucks.
Come on.
Let's go.
Let's go.
It's 30 days free, and then we come and take $8 and probably some of your knickknacks.
And we just break into your house.
All right.
And also, please, if you will pre-order my memoir, The Great Good Thing A Secular Jew Comes to Faith in Christ, send me the receipt at acclavin at dailywire.com, and I will send you a sticker with an autograph you can put in the book.
The great good thing a secular Jew comes to faith in Christ.
You will genuinely enjoy it.
I'm getting such great reactions, early reactions, and pre-publicate publication reviews.
I think you'll really like it.
All right, the Trump pivot.
This is the big news.
Trump has changed.
He's no longer Trump.
He's an entirely different candidate.
This is wonderful.
He made a speech just as he waited till he knew we were going off the air because he knew I would mock him.
So he just waited.
And at the last minute, he made this speech and he said, and remember, he's now got his new team, Steve Bannon and Kelly Dan Conway, or now he's running his campaign.
And he's in Charlotte, North Carolina.
And he makes the speech saying maybe he hasn't always said the exact right thing.
As you know, I'm not a politician.
It's good.
I've worked in business, created a great company, created lots of jobs, rebuilding neighborhoods.
That's what I've done all of my adult life.
I've never wanted to learn the language of the insiders, and I've never been politically correct.
It takes far too much time and can often make it more difficult to achieve total victory.
Sometimes, in the heat of debate and speaking on a multitude of issues, you don't choose the right words or you say the wrong thing.
I have done that, and believe it or not, I regret it.
And I do regret it, particularly where it may have caused personal pain.
Too much is at stake for us to be consumed with these issues.
But one thing I can promise you this: I will always tell you the truth.
So, okay, kind of a non-apology apology.
It's only because he's so honest.
He's not a politician.
He's been spending his time rebuilding America and didn't really learn.
So I'm a little confused.
Does this mean Ted Cruz's father didn't kill JFK?
I just want to know.
Because I thought we had solved that problem.
Anyway, it's a non-apology apology, but it's a different tone.
I think we have to be fair and say that it is a different tone.
It is not the usual Donald Trump belligerence.
It's not, I won't apologize for anything.
And I have to be honest, I have a little sympathy for the people who don't like to see politicians apologize because the left has been using what the left does is it twists our good manners against us.
That's what it does.
It says, you've offended me.
Nobody wants to offend anybody.
I don't want to offend anybody.
But it says, like, oh, you know, you waved an American flag.
That's offensive to me.
You offended me.
So, everything you do that expresses your right-wing conservative opinions, your pro-American opinions, your constitutional opinions, becomes an insult to them, you know, in some kind of racist comment, and everybody has to apologize for everything.
And we're all walking on tiptoes, and all it really is is shut up.
All it means is shut up, don't say anything that disagrees with the left-wing agenda of the government taking over every aspect of your life and telling you exactly how you should behave at every minute, how you should run your business, all this stuff.
Don't say anything about that, or you're a racist, terrible person, so apologize.
And so, when we see Trump not apologize, we like it.
On the other hand, he has done a lot of stuff where a normal, decent person would apologize.
And all these things get confused together because it's really the left started.
The left did this whole thing.
I mean, there was a you know, this movie Sausage Party has come out, and some gay site did a review of it saying something nice about the depiction.
I haven't seen the movie yet, so I'm not sure what we're talking about, but it's the depiction voiced by Selma Hayek of a lesbian taco shell, I believe it is, a lesbian taco.
And they were attacked because, no, she's not a lesbian, she's a bisexual taco shell.
And so, this website put out a 2600-word apology, a 2,600-word apology.
And let me do just some quick math.
That is eight typed pages, eight or nine typed pages of apology that they put out.
So, I think we're all a little tired of apology.
So, he makes this apology, but he's kind of winking at the audience, but it is a different tone.
And there has been what some people are perceiving as a little bit of pullback on his anti-immigration stuff.
So, for instance, he once said he was going to have an immigration force.
He was going to establish an immigration force to come to your house and arrest the approximately, nobody really knows how many there are, but approximately 11 million illegal aliens and deport them.
And you can just imagine what that's going to look like on television to have these people being dragged, you know, mother, mother, please don't take my mother, you know, where even all those Trump guys who are shouting, build a wall, build a wall, are going to be going like, What?
You know, that's what it looks like when you drag a child away from its mother.
That doesn't look as good as it did in my imagination.
You know, when I was raging in the room by myself, that looked like a lot of fun, but suddenly it's not.
So, now he's kind of pulling back.
Here's Kellyanne Conway, his new communicator, who is just kind of just fudging on the edges of this a little bit.
So, does Donald Trump still support that?
A deportation force removing the 11 million or so undocumented immigrants.
What he supports, and if you go back to his convention speech a month ago, Donna, what he supports is to make sure that we enforce the law, that we are respectful of those Americans who are looking for well-paying jobs, and that we are fair and humane for those who live among us in this country.
And as the weeks unfold, as the weeks unfold, he will lay out the specifics of that plan that he would implement as president of the United States.
Will that plan include a deportation force, the kind that he just you just heard in that sound bite and that he talked about during the Republican primaries?
To be determined.
TBD, you know, it's like two months, two months till the guy would theoretically becomes president, not two months, two months before the election.
We don't know.
It's kind of a major point, but that's okay.
So, he's just softening his tone a little bit.
Now, here are two takes on this: okay, one is Krauthammers.
He gives you the political take, which is cynical and hard to believe.
How is it that this guy is going to change the personality of a lifetime and become, you know, it really would have to be a different Donald Trump entirely.
So, here's Krauthammer expressing just a little bit of cynicism.
You get two strikes, three strikes in your app.
You get a third firing, and it'll be called disarray, chaos, confusion.
But I think at this point people understand that with the stories coming out about a man and forward, it was impossible to keep him on.
So that's sort of explicable.
The other part is we saw from the speech that Trump made late today in Michigan, the process of softening the man is underway.
I mean, this is a very heavy soak, a wash, a dry, a spin.
And they're doing it, I think, rather effectively.
Talking about the concern of minorities, supposedly confessing that he occasionally says the wrong things.
Let's see if he can do that without reading off a teleprompter.
And I'm sure he'll be asked, what do you regret?
Can you give an example?
It'll be extremely interesting to see if he gives an example and which example it might be.
So Krauthammer makes a good point there because remember, it's not just this apology thing.
I regret occasionally running over, backing over my friends' children's or whatever he's saying.
You know, it's not just that.
Trump has had a good four or five days.
You know, he made an excellent foreign policy speech.
Bolton was in the Wall Street Journal saying this was a good foreign policy speech.
Excellent speech on law and order.
His thing about blacks, the speeches he's making about blacks driving the left crazy, well, just play a little bit of the second Trump cut.
The inner cities of our country have been run by the Democratic Party for more than 50 years.
Their policies have produced only poverty, joblessness, failing schools, and broken homes.
It's time to hold Democratic politicians accountable for what they have done to these communities.
At what point do we say enough?
At what point do we say enough?
It's time to hold failed leaders accountable for their results, not just their empty words over and over again.
So, you know, that drove the Hillary camp nuts because he's saying that, you know, black people's lives suck under Democrats, which is absolutely true.
It's absolutely true.
And they're saying, how could you say such terrible things?
But there's another take on Trump that really fascinates me.
And unfortunately, if you're on Facebook, you've got to come on over or YouTube.
Come on over to the Daily Wire and hear the rest.
It's really an interesting, different take on what Trump is doing.
All right, into the valley of death.
600.
The other take on what Trump is doing in this turnaround, this, what do they call it, the pivot, comes from the Dilbert cartoonist, Scott Adams.
And Adams has been predicting and continues to predict a Trump victory.
And Adams has talked about Trump's use of persuasion techniques.
But now he's saying that Trump is following in his campaign, whether he's doing it on purpose or not, he is following what is called the three-act structure of screenplay writing.
Screenplays have a very steady structure, especially if you're writing popular screenplays, if you're writing summer movies and things like this.
Screenplays are thought to have a very, very specific structure, down to the page.
When you read a book on screenwriting or when you practice screenwriting, you know, I use a board in back of me when I write a screenplay and I put cards up and all this stuff.
And I know that at certain places, certain events have to take place, certain kinds of emotional events.
And here is Scott Adams talking about how Trump's campaign is modeled essentially on that board that would be in back of me as I write.
And here he's talking about the three-act structure.
Let's say you were writing the movie of Trump's rise, and let's say you're thinking ahead and Trump actually wins in the end.
If you're writing that movie, the typical form for the movie is that there's something unexpected happened that changes somebody's life trajectory, and that would be when Trump announced he was running for presidency.
Then there's the second act of the movie, in which it's been called the fun and games part.
And in that, you would see your protagonist, your hero of the movie, overcoming a number of smaller hurdles that while you're watching them, they look like big hurdles.
So you don't know that they're overcomable because it's a movie, but they look like they're bad hurdles.
But it's not until you get what's called the third act when you realize that all those hurdles you've overcome, such as winning the primary and coming up to at least even in the polls in the general election against Clinton for a while, it looked like you had crossed the big hurdles, only to discover there's an even bigger one at the end, the big hurdle, the hurdle of all hurdles.
And that's what makes it a movie.
So it can't be the hurdle of all hurdles until you also have time running out.
Because we imagine that most things could be solved if you had enough time.
But it's the time running out that makes it a third act.
And now that you have September coming up pretty quickly in October, and it's the last two months of a long campaign, if there's a third act, it would happen in those two months.
Okay, so what he's saying is, now that thing about fun and games, that comes from a book called Save the Cat, I think.
So he's referencing these books that we all read, you know, that tell you the structure of a screenplay.
What he's not saying is that because this happens in the movies, it's going to happen in Trump's campaign.
What he's saying is that our imaginations have been colonized by the movies so that we react to real life as if it were a movie or a reality show.
And that since Trump is following that trajectory, we are all going to respond to him as we would respond to the hero of a movie.
That's a very, very meta way to look at things.
Press Conferences Matter00:05:35
And I have to say, I'm always suspicious of these readings.
I think people are incredibly able to respond to media with realism.
I mean, they blow up towers in movies all the time, and nobody's heart breaks.
But when we saw on television, when we saw the World Trade Center explode, we were all traumatized because we knew, even though we were seeing it on a screen, we knew that it was real.
Some of us.
As I said, there were some crazy people who are still complaining that it was not real.
But we are actually more capable than he thinks we are, I think, of detaching from even the colonization of the movies, which is a real thing.
Now, right now, the polls from 538, they're saying that the polls are tightening in the national race, but not in the state races.
And that, of course, is where everything takes place in the Electoral College.
But still, still, it'll be interesting to see how much of what Adam says comes true, because it is true that Trump's campaign is following that three-act pattern.
Now, meanwhile, just to follow whether Trump is actually going to change, we have to look at Hillary for a minute because her campaign, if it weren't for the utter, utter corruption of the media, her campaign would be in smoke and ashes.
I mean, everything that's happening to her is just terrible.
First, she was caught, you know, they handed in her testimony to the FBI.
They gave it over to Congress.
And it turns out she blamed Colin Powell for telling her, oh yeah, you ought to have this, you know, crummy separate server where, you know, our secrets can be stolen by our enemies.
You know, this is Colin Powell.
And Colin Powell's going, wait, they're trying to stick this on me.
He says to People Magazine, they're trying to stick this on me.
Colin Powell did not have a separate server where he exposed top-class top-secret information like she did.
The rules were different when Colin Powell was Secretary of State, and she's still trying to sell this routine.
So she's caught out in that lie.
And then, you know, there's also the fact that she hasn't given a press conference in 260 days, which is edging up on a year.
So even John Dickerson, a complete Democrat stooge, is now asking Robbie Mook the perennially sneering.
He looks like, I'm sorry, I don't mean to make fun of stroke victims, but he looks like a guy who had a stroke in the midst of a sneer, and he's just going to sneer forever.
So even Dickerson is asking him about the fact that she just doesn't face the press.
It's been 260 days since the press conference.
And somebody I was talking to had been in a White House said, if a candidate can't have press conferences and deal with the cut and thrust of a press conference, that weakens them when they become president because they're going to need that as a way to communicate with the American people.
So why not have a press conference?
Well, the real question here is whether Secretary Clinton has been taking questions from reporters, which she absolutely has.
We went and counted, and she has been in more than 300 interviews with reporters this year alone.
I know she's been on your show, and we're going to continue to do that.
And there are a lot of different formats in which she can engage with reporters, whether it's those one-on-one interviews, whether it's talking with her traveling press and reporters, or a press conference.
And we're going to look at all of those as we move forward.
But I don't think it's fair to say that someone is shying away from tough questions when they've taken over 300 interviews from reporters.
We tried to have the interns look at how many questions she took, which is a much bigger number, as she would appreciate.
And we haven't even finished tallying that.
So this guy's on auto lie.
One day I really expect just like a demon to drop out of the top of the screen, just rip his soul out of the top of his head and carry it away.
Sorry, that's one lie, too many.
Leave the shriveled husk of Robbie Mook's body sitting there.
Now, on top of this, Hillary's lesbian lover/slash campaign aide, Uma Abedin, has been exposed.
I'm sorry.
I don't know what makes me think that as ridiculous.
She's been exposed in a New York Post article as having edited a radical Islamic journal that is opposed to the rights of women, as it would be.
Hillary Clinton's, this is from the Post, Hillary Clinton's top campaign aide and the woman who might be the future White House chief of staff, so the first female U.S. president for a decade edited a radical Muslim publication that opposed women's rights and blamed the U.S. for 9-11.
This is stuff, I mean, there was stuff in here by Huma's mother basically saying empowerment of women does more harm than benefit to the cause of women and saying that the America was doomed to be hit on 9-11.
And all of these articles were edited and worked on by Huma.
So, you know, is she going to have to answer that?
No, of course not.
You know, that would take a working press.
But just to finish, to give you the punchline of this, what's Trump tweeting about this morning?
He's tweeting about the fact that Joe and Mika on Morning Joe insulted them.
He's calling her a neurotic.
And also, I think Trump is still Trump.
There's something about this.
This is what the guy is talking about.
All right, so while we're talking about lesbians, let's get back to the sausage party, this idea.
Jim Jarity from the National Review had an article last week or the end of last week where he said the right is winning the culture war.
He says, allow me to throw out a theory, and I'm not entirely sure I believe it myself.
It came up in a conversation with Liz Shield last night.
I think of this assertion as playing the devil's advocate.
In 2016, the right is winning the culture wars.
Here's his evidence.
Target will spend $20 million to add private bathrooms to each of its stores next year after customers protested its policy allowing transgender individuals to use whichever restroom corresponds with their gender identity.
The Answer Is Lots of Bizarre Sex00:08:33
So they're spending $20 million, which means there must have been a real upheaval among the customers.
Another piece of evidence, Caitlin Jenner's reality show, I Am Kate, got canceled.
The all-female Ghostbusters, which feminists kind of made a cause celeb, saying if you don't go to see this, you're anti-feminist, that bombed.
The alumni at universities are reacting, are holding back on giving because they're tired of these spoiled juvenile wimps or social justice warriors.
I don't know what SJW stands for, but this is spoiled juvenile wimps, social justice warriors, one or the other.
They're hampering free speech and making all this trouble, and the alumni are pulling back on their donations, a drop in enrollment at the university, a huge drop in enrollment at the University of Missouri, where there was all that racial tension.
Gawker shutting down.
Is there a rebellion against the left?
So I haven't seen Sausage Party, but it's made by the guys who made This Is the End.
And our intrepid reporter, Michael Knowles, not only did he see it, but he's going to broadcast to us live from the room next door.
Can we get, do we have the technology to bring in Knowles from the room next door?
Oh my god, this is amazing.
What will they think of now?
There may be a little time delay because he's coming from, I think, maybe 20 feet away.
So you actually saw a sausage party, did you not?
I saw it so that you don't have to.
We appreciate it.
It was about 30% genuinely hilarious.
The movie, for those who don't know, is about a sausage named Frank and a bun named Brenda and a lesbian taco.
And they are dreaming about getting out of the supermarket and being taken home by these human gods and going to the Great Beyond.
But then they realize what happens to them when they leave the supermarket and they launch a long struggle to get out.
And what's really amazing is that Seth Rogan is much more astute than he realizes.
All of these guys who made this movie, the movie is basically about what happens when a culture decides that it must kill its gods to be happy and free.
And the answer, this is a little bit of a spoiler alert, but it's a movie about a talking hot dog, so get over it.
The answer is lots of bizarre and mostly gay sex.
And if there is not a greater analog for 2016 than a culture killing its gods and having bizarre sex.
And is this looked on askance at all?
Or is it great that there's lots of crazy sex amazing?
Well, this is where Seth Rogan doesn't realize how smart he is, is that it's really celebrated as a very excellent ending to the movie.
Whereas if we were looking at our culture, we might say that decadence and decay is something of a tragedy.
I say.
But they are celebrating all the way through.
They never break the joke.
Well, I have to say I will eat hot dogs with an entirely different attitude from now on.
And yeah, we got Mexican right after we saw the movie.
Excellent, excellent.
And I appreciate your coming on.
want to say that don't tread on me flag is a racist defense and uh the the i'm sorry for microaggressing Our deportation force will be in your room momentarily.
They're here.
All right.
Thanks a lot, Michael.
I appreciate it.
Thanks, Drew.
See ya.
Now, if that seems to you like it's entirely crazy, I admit Knowles is crazy.
There's nothing we can do about that.
But in fact, the team that made this made another picture called This Is the End.
And This is the End is a story of all these narcissistic Actors who play themselves in the apocalypse.
And at one point, they turn to each other and say, Well, wait, if there's an apocalypse, then there must be a God.
Who saw that coming?
And they look at each other, and somebody says, Everybody except for us.
So even though Rogan is baked out of his mind half the time, you know, this is something that is obviously on his mind.
And the thing about Garrity's piece in the National Journal saying we won the culture war, just like football, just like any game, you can't win playing defense.
You know, defense makes it possible for you to win, but one of the problems with the right is that we're always playing defense.
It's always no, no, no, we don't want that.
No, no, no, we don't like that.
That's bad, that's bad, that's bad.
Don't change this, don't do this.
The world used to be a better place.
If you want to win the culture war, and I'm not sure that's exactly how culture works, but just speaking in those simplistic terms for a minute, you have to know what you believe and you have to put it forward aggressively.
You have to make movies about real life that say this is what works.
This is what happens.
This is what we believe in.
We believe that the individual is the driver of improvements in life.
And the government gets in the way of the individual.
And its only role is to protect his freedom, to protect his freedom of conscience, to protect freedom of action, to protect his freedom to do business, to protect his freedom and safety to be himself and follow his conscience, even when his conscience looks like something awful to you.
As long as he leaves you alone, as long as he doesn't interfere with your liberty, we believe that he should be free.
And that is a positive message that is not appearing enough.
So, for stuff I like, I saw the film Hell or High Water on Austin's recommendation.
And I have to say, I probably would have seen it anyway because of the writer.
It stars Jeff Bridges, Chris Pine, Ben Foster.
Ben Foster, one of my absolute favorite actors.
I think he's one of the great actors of the generation.
I think it's unfortunate that he always plays these kind of madmen, you know, but I think he's just a really, really good actor.
So, Chris Pine and Ben Foster is kind of a modern Western.
They go out and they rob banks because the banks have been repossessing homes and treating people badly in this part of West Texas that is just dying of poverty.
Jeff Bridges goes out with a partner and chases him down.
And one of the things that's really terrific about the film is the interplay between Jeff Bridges and his partner.
I'm not sure who the actor is who plays the partner.
What's his name?
He's on Parks and Rec.
Oh, he's on the part.
Oh, all right.
So he's a guy from Parks and Rec.
But the thing is, they're kind of the same two people.
The bank robbers and the cops are kind of the same two people, but they're fighting and they're using the same, they're both stirred by testosterone.
I mean, the idea of testosterone just is all over this movie.
But the cops are the good guys because they're putting their energies to good purposes.
And the bad guys are a little bit, let's put them gray.
They're in shades of gray because they're doing it for Chris Pine, at least is doing it for his family.
Here's a scene where Chris Pine and Ben Foster are talking about Chris Pine's family, who he's, they're the reason he's robbing banks.
You boys know how rich they're going to be?
They don't know anything yet.
You take them to the funeral?
Like I said, they don't know anything.
You want a little advice?
No, no, I don't.
Go see him tomorrow.
You had any idea how much I owe Debbie and Child Support?
Got enough in your front pocket.
Fix that problem right now.
You can't spare it, you know that.
Maybe we should hit another branch.
You know, you talk like we ain't going to get away with this.
I've never met nobody got away with anything, ever.
You.
And why in the hell did you agree to do it?
Because you asked, little brother.
That's the other thing.
This is about the love of people for their family, the fact that we will do just about anything for our family.
I have to mention, it's directed by David McKenzie, but the hero of this movie, which really is a good, strong crime picture, is the writer Taylor Sheridan.
The reason I know this is because he also wrote Scario, which was really hampered by casting.
They cast a woman in a man's part, basically.
And it really hampered the picture, but a very, very tough, well-written crime drama.
This script was on what's called the blacklist in Hollywood, where these are scripts that everybody knows are great, but nobody will make.
And this has been around forever and been knocking around, finally got it made, and it's really good.
Taylor Sheridan, really good crime writer.
We'll see him a lot more.
