What was said
"Netflix has shelved it. I've seen it. It's completed. It's ready. And it is a shame that they've shelved it because the director, the screenwriter, Michael Skolberg, who plays Gore's lover of 40-something years, I think would win an Academy Award for his performance."
Kevin Spacey reveals that Netflix owns but refuses to release Dear Mr. Vidal, a completed 2017 film in which he plays Gore Vidal. Spacey says he believes co-star Michael Skolberg's performance deserves an Academy Award and that the entire cast and crew are being unfairly punished. He appeals for Netflix to either release the film or give it to another distributor like Paramount.
