How a 30-Year-Old Mastermind Fooled an Entire High School Into Thinking He Was a Teen—And What It Means for Trust in the Digital Age
But in terms of the theme that I see for the film, it’s that town of Bearsden — this Beverly Hills of Glasgow — where there are great expectations on kids to achieve and to follow in their family’s footsteps, becoming lawyers and dentists and all of that. What does it mean when those expectations are so forced upon kids? That “keeping up with the Joneses” thing can happen in places like that. That idea of privilege I was interested in looking at.
As you said, Brandon has already told his story several times. Why agree to do your film, then? Was he wanting to make sure he was cast in a favorable light?
