‘Dear Mama’ Director Allen Hughes on Tupac Shakur’s Legacy: “He Lived More in a Day Than Most in a Year”

'Murdaugh Murders: A Southern Scandal' Director on Uncovering an "Underbelly of Corruption, Greed and Powers of Social Control"

It’s been almost 27 years since Tupac’s death. What made you want to tell the story of Tupac and Afeni Shakur now? When that happened, I went to the hospital. You can imagine 10, 15 dudes rolling you up like a burrito. It was not pretty. I was angry with him because I’m like, “Why did you have to take it there?” I offered to meet him personally one-on-one in the park. And that’s why I ended up going to court, because he wouldn’t meet me. He wasn’t ready, obviously. A couple of weeks later, me and my brother are at Cannes. We’re all over TV, on theshow. We have the hottest movie in town.
