Bleeder and Bates: "The hearing"

I shot Bleeder and Bates in 1988/89 when my repertory company for film and television was in full swing. Members were trained in my Action/ReAction technique which was meant for the exclusive use of our group members and was not offered publicly.

In this scene, corrupt forces are attempting to derail a murder investigation by bringing forth women to accuse our hero of sexual misconduct and rape. The two points I wanted to make in this scene, which relies on the 'Action/ReAction' of the attendees, were that not all of the panel members were accepting the allegations as truthful and that, even so, they were intimidated by the powerful though hidden force that had orchestrated the event.
