Why We Fight

I have no idea why Lydie fights me and I doubt that she knows herself. I fight her only because of the tapes. That´s all I want. Lydie and I did agree to shoot a movie together, we shot it, I want to edit it and I want to release and distribute it, just the way Lydie and I had agreed on.

There are discussions about supporting Lydie even if she IS evil if you are her fan. I can understand that. Fans are loyal to their idols and there is more evil "talent" out there that you can think of, so why not. I also have no problems to admit that Lydie is a terrific actress. I did not know Perfect Alibi and bought it after our fight already was on. Inspite I watched it and admit she is wonderful (and in the movie she very much behaves the way she did on our set). The other question is if you support your idol if she runs amok and starts telling lies to achieve what she wants and if she asks you to join her in running amok.

Several persons on our set had to make such a decisions when Lydie started her take-over attempt. Katja, Jeannie and Vonny did not support her.
Jörg stayed as a DP at my request but step by step was replaced by Roswitha´s husband. The editor Philipp had to make a difficult decision as he was a friend of Roswitha`s but when he realized what was going on he did refuse to give Lydie the edited material. In fact this stopped her, she could not go to Cannes to show the trailer. Other members of crew and cast seriously thought of supporting Lydie as there might have been the chance that she takes her to a big US production company, something few people in the business are offered; some others suported me.

Roswitha whom I knew since many years and whom I considered a friend supported Lydie in every way, taking a lawyer and even claiming this was A LYDIE DENIER PRODUCTION and that I had nothing to do with it and that I was not even on the set.

And Michael Worth, Lydie´s former Acapulco H.E.A.T. co-star also had to make a decision. He is Lydie´s friend for a long time. He is himself a producer and after shooting I and he emailed us many times. He never really said so, but I thought he does not approve what Lydie did, and I think somehow this did affect their relationship.

However he had to make another decision. When Lydie went to Santa Monica Court I was in Germany and had no time to fly to LA, so I asked Michael Worth who lives in California, to go to Santa Monica Court to the Hearing and tell the judge Lydie does not tell the truth. He refused. He knew Lydie did lie, he knew I am NOT a stalker. We were together on the set and he knew I did produce A Bouquet for a Kill and he could have stopped Lydie but he didn´t. He probably did not approve what Lydie did but as her friend he did not want to do something against her.

Looking back I think this was wrong. Before Lydie went to Santa Monica Court and went public uploading on her website this TMZ article saying she is stalked by a crazy fan, this was a fight between Lydie and me behind the scenes. It was not public and almost noone knew that Lydie tried to take over Bouquet.

After Lydie told SMC and the press that I am a stalker, I had no other choice to fight back. As everything that is uploaded in the www is there everytime anywhere I had to inform everyone everywhere Lydie did not tell the truth. And I do this very well. I wrote to newspapers, websites, and did upload almost every day statements and articles to make sure everyone realizes that what Lydie tells about me is not true. I am lucky to have photos, witnesses and videotapes showing me and Lydie together on the set of A Bouquet for a Kill. If an woman accuses someone to have stalked her it is her word against the other. In my case I had enough evidence Lydie is not telling the truth I only had to upload it. Result: Lydie wanted to ruin my reputation but she is about to ruin her own reputation.
If Michael Worth had gone to SMC he would have done Lydie even a favor, because what happened now is really evil. This was a little low budget movie and Lydie now risks a lot, not only her reputation. I have already mailed Santa Monica Court and LASD evidence and the dvds with A Bouquet for a Kill / Outtakes and all I have to do now is to fly to LA, and sue Lydie. If I do so, SMC will have officially evidence that Denier did show SMC F A L S I F I E D evidence and that she did lie to SMC. If she does not notify SMC what really happened BEFORE I fly to LA and sue her she will be in real trouble. It´s illegal what she did and even more, it´s so stupid. And I wished she had some real friends who had stopped her and just told her to give me my tapes.

There are two ways you can fight. You can fight in an honest way telling always the truth. And I can tell you THIS will be a long, long fight. Or you can tell lies and fight unfair. This can lead to a shortime success but in the end, it´s not working.
Lydie decided to fight unfair. I do not know what she made think that this is going to work. Maybe she is evil, maybe she acts just silly, I do not know. Maybe she had earlier success fighting this way.
The other way is to fight fair and just tell the truth.

Anyway there is not much left what she can do now. She can try to cover her old fairy tales with new fairy tells ang get herself more and more and more in trouble or she ends this stupid fight and returns my tapes. I absolutely detest what she did but I will keep my word. If she returns my tapes so I can edit a producer´s cut she will get digital copy of every tape I have from Bouquet and she can edit her director´s cut just the way she wants to do it and we will sell both versions. I do not see the point why we should fight over this. We fight for three years now. I am not happy. I need my time and money for new projects and I think Lydie should also feel better if this fight ends so we all can concentrate on new projects. It´s up to Lydie. It´s her decision, not mine. I fight for my movie no matter how long it take.
Sincerely,
Michael Huck
