I’m not overlooking the conservatorship they had over him, which is fucked up, but the fact he claimed he never received any money from the movie and this comes out is a bad look. Others have mentioned ‘Hollywood accounting’ in this thread, which is shady accounting they do to report zero profits or losses, yet he received $138K. Not a whole lot, given the film’s numbers, but still more than he claims and more than people who choose film royalties.
