He says, "I am not surprised by it. There's a lot of reasons people do this for a living. Making a movie is a life experience that can create an awful lot of joy...That's the good stuff. The bad stuff can happen in a movie as well. There are some people who go into this business because they get off on having power...There are predators absolutely everywhere."
