Canceled:The Paula Deen Story

An intimate reckoning with the celebrity chef at the center of one of the defining cancellations of the social-media age.

“I don't miss a movie by Billy Corben, the great Florida filmmaker behind "Screwball," "Men of War," and the hit "Cocaine Cowboys" series. He's a creative, brilliant filmmaker who is clearly attracted to larger-than-life personalities, people whose flaws, and often their mishandling of mistakes, led to their downfall.”
