The project is the project managed Colin HanksA-List features an endless list of stars — to Tom Hanks From Martin Short - To praise the incredible talent of the comedian actor and the demon's heart, but it also throws the screen at the edge of the story of Candy.

Some of the old interviews with Candy I like me The most difficult moments to testify, since journalists regularly grill him for his weight and health. While talking exclusively Our weeklyJennifer (1) and Christopher (1) revealed that they were unconscious of the brutal press cycle that they had tolerated throughout his career.

"Really, it was insane to see and see a few of these interviewers What he keptBecause at the opportunity of time we know the whole story, "Christopher said exclusively Ours Before the release of the dock. "And I heard a story that didn't make it in the documentary, but it was so uncomfortable that he was so uncomfortable because of the paparazzi, so it forced him not to eat. Like, 'Okay, but I can drink a drink, or when I get a cigarette, and then when I eat something at the end of the hotel room.' And we all know only from the common metabolic rate, it's terrible for you "

He continued, "So, when you are discussing with your mind and how he was working on how he was working. Those things are boring. This thing is where I wanted to be there and to be on his back and give him a big hug and 'Dood, screw those boys''

Jennifer echoed his brother's feelings and said that he and Christopher only attended the talk show in their father's "fun" interview. They also saw the finished product, so there was a jerking experience to see clips behind the screen.

"I was okay, 'wow'. So, it was harmful because people know better," he said OursThe "You don't comment on the weight of the man that way, or anything that is fighting with it is definitely challenging. It was difficult to rewrite that it was difficult."

He also shared another aspect of Candy's personality that did not make it as a documentary: party-throre, which was often turned against it. Jennifer explained that when his father preferred to host events, "plenty of food" would be ordered, so people could claim that Candy "was eating all of them".

"And like, no, he ordered the sandwich for (everyone). You don't understand that there is a hotel room filled with family and friends, and we are all celebrating," he said. "So, again, he did not eat in front of (the people). He was probably a sandwich, but it was people who had misinterpret or their own narratives in such staff. I think it was always challenging because people are going to think about what they might think, and it is not your reality, but it is not like you, it's not your good, it's your good, it is your good, it is your good.

Documenter makes it clear that Candy often stresses against someone who criticizes his health - Eugene Levi Claimed that Candy took a friend "out of his rolodex" after writing a letter about his weight - he also made Steps to take care of yourselfEspecially at the end of his life. Candy spent time in the weight loss center, worked regularly with a trainer and was a nutritionist before his death.

Nevertheless, he often felt that the people and the forces "wanted him big", so he was "big".

Candy also suffered a countless mental health problems, including terrified attacks highlighted in the documentary. Jennifer and Christopher explained that when director Colin And producers Ryan Renolds They came to them about the project, they wanted to make sure the film did not keep their father's struggle.

"We didn't want it to be a highlight reel or Wikipedia entrance to the softball movie," Christopher said. OursThe "We wanted to make sure we talked about the trauma he got. And in fact, our observations about it were that he started working at the end of his life.

Jennifer agreed that it was important that they did not "candy-coat" their parents.

"You want to make sure that it has a bit of depth, because no one is interested (otherwise)," he said. "Because then everyone will come out, 'Well, why (why didn't they talk about it)?' For example, we wanted anyone to get out of it (say), 'Oh, I learned something,' or, 'I felt something.' "

It was also about searching for situations led to their father's concern. "Yes, our father was bigger than life, the extra weight actor. Okay, but it's said. Why is the question? Why? It is deeper than that," he said. "So let's just oppose it to the obviously pointing out. It is just to anyone in life, you don't know what they are doing, what they are working with, so you just have to go back and say that the story can be revealed and told."

The story of Candy certainly influenced both her baby. Jennifer and Christopher quickly agreed that their father's health warfare "completely" affects how they live their own life as adults.

Jennifer said, “When I was a child my heart was in the state of OursThe “I am with the doctor all the time.

Christopher, who revealed in this documentary that he was "proud of" to "treat" his father, he said that he was "very young" to take care of his health after realizing his grandparents, uncles and parents.

"I remember just watching, 'What will happen to the men in our family? Like, they all were having a heart attack,'" he remembered. "And it was able to go to me, 'Okay, probably 24 is a cardiologist and have a good relationship with the cardiologist, and go to the bottom of the hood."

This does not mean that he is necessarily visible to feel that he did the same thing to his relatives. Christopher explained, "As time goes on, you can understand, 'Oh, this genetics is probably not inherited, it was perhaps the behavior," "Christopher explained." It gives you a lot more confidence in moving forward. I don't have the sword of Damocles on my head, where I am afraid to grow up. I'm actually excited about it. ”

In the end, both siblings said that reconsideration of their father's death is something that they have been treating in therapy over the years - "it comes and goes to the waves," Jennifer shared - but the overall experience of making I like me Was a positive.

Christopher said, "You somehow forgot how big a star (our father) was, until you were talking so clearly about Tom Hanks," Christopher said. "And I think for both Jane and I, we were fan of the huge Kanan O'Brien, so our father had a direct impact on him and then he influenced us, like it, 'Hua. It is noticeable."

“This is altru,” Jennifer added. "As, in small doses, I can handle it, but suddenly you have got two hours (praise) and you liked, 'Oh, it's overwhelming!'
