A day after the fiasco of the movie’s premiere, Screen International ran a remarkable interview in which Gallo apologized for his film, calling it “a disaster and a waste of time,” and adding, “I apologize to the financiers of the film, but I must assure you it was never my intention to make a pretentious film, a self-indulgent film, a useless film, an unengaging film.” He added that the official screening “was the worst feeling I ever had in my life,” and said he would never watch the film again.

On Monday Gallo told the New York Post’s Page Six that Screen International “made up” his quotes. He added, “I’m sorry I’m not gay or Jewish, so I don’t have a special interest group of journalists who support me.”
