Tom Shadyac isn’t a household name director but you’ve seen, and most likely feel like you’ve got your tickets, tub of sodas, and pinanta of popcorns worth for the monies you’ve spent. Directing movies such as “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,” “Liar, Liar,” “Bruce Almighty,” just to name 3 for sake of attention span, he is a true product of the Hollywood Paradox.
Since his last critically smited “Evan Almighty,” he’s been living in a trailer park, comparing himself a sort of Gandhi, and considers the business of Entertainment a deadly toxin to the World. Now taking meetings on terms of both agents and representatives paddle board out into the ocean before he will start talking any business at all.
In the process of creating his newest film-a documentary called “I Am,”-he spends his life spending as little as necessary, giving to philanthropic organizations, and speaking out against the competitive nature mind-set that he believes destroys the creative excellence manifested in co-operation; which “I Am,”’s theme is aimed at.
He has made no comment on retuning all the money he made from the Industry that will cause the world to end.
