Interview with the director James Toback James Toback has been a controversial figure in Hollywood for years, dividing audiences and critics over films like Fingers, Exposed, Two Girls and a Guy, and Black and White. There's no divisiveness in opinion over the quality of his latest film, a riveting self-portrait of a fascinating man called Tyson. In no one's words but Mike Tyson’s own, Toback allows one of the greatest boxers who ever lived an amazing self-examination captured on celluloid. The response has been nearly universal in its acclaim. .... MOVIE RETRIEVER: You've known Mike for years, so you must have had a reasonable idea of what he would say and how the movie would turn out. What surprised you the most about him?
JAMES TOBACK: Two things really surprised me. One was his ENDLESS use of the word "fear" to describe his condition in and out of the ring. The number of times that he describes situations in which he was fearful shocked me because you don't... I don't think of him that way. I had no idea that lurking just below his level of consciousness was this constant sense of uneasiness and fear and insecurity. Nothing like that. And the other thing, which was probably connected to that, was his respiratory difficulties. He mentions that, although he wasn't diagnosed, it's clear he was a childhood asthmatic. When he says he had trouble breathing... I had asthma when I was a kid. When you say you had trouble breathing, what you're really saying is you were forced to deal with death or the fear of the death without having any preparation for it. When you're lying there and you're four years old or five years old and you're gasping for breath, you don't understand what's going on. You just feel something very bad is about to happen. To overcome that... I don't care whether the movie does phenomenally well or not well... when you have to overcome THAT, your whole life is going to be different. You can't ignore that as the operating reality. It's like having your head held under the water constantly. The panic that is clearly under the surface in Mike is the direct result of that sense of helplessness, his permanent danger to the integrity of the psyche.
