This is the busted open podcast.

For you, how difficult was it for you to do this documentary to open yourself up to talk about your past like this.

Oh, it was painful.

Like, uh, I got, I got, uh, I got enough issues to, uh, to hold a magazine stand.

The, uh, yeah, it was rough.

Like, every time, like, the director wanted me to look at the movie to see what I thought,

you know, I was like, oh, do I have to watch it? And I'd blow it off for a couple months and,

you know, and finally I'd sit down and watch it and it was brutal going through it. You know,

it wasn't so bad. It was okay doing it, but it was to watching it back to just, it's just over and over, because you have to, you know, there was a lot of edit points, you know what I mean, and stuff, a lot of as, you know, you wanted my opinion on whether to keep this, move that, or whatever. And, uh, and I wanted to put my two cents in, you know, it was up to him to make the movie he wanted to make,

but, you know, I wanted to put my two cents in, like, if I thought, like, um, like,

there was a shot in earlier of, uh, of somebody that had nothing to do with me that I was

like, yeah, it really doesn't apply, you know what I mean? Let's not keep that in there, but,

but watching it back every time was brutal.

Raven, was it, do you mean it was emotionally brutal for you? Yeah, yeah. I wasn't physically brutal. It wasn't physically brutal.

No, no, I understand that. I thought you, at first you were meant like maybe stylistically.

You know, you mentioned the edit points, but you said it's emotionally brutal.

Talk to me about, talk to us about one particular scene or one particular moment that was emotionally brutal for you.

But most importantly, tell us why.
