Jon Stewart on "Rosewater" and Torture (Nov. 12, 2014) | Charlie Rose
Charlie Rose: In-Depth Interviews of Americas BestSummary
A personal account reveals the traumatic journey of an individual who underwent gender transition at a young age, prompted by a brief meeting with doctors who labeled them transgender. The individual recounts the consequences of this decision, including hormone treatments and a poorly executed double mastectomy, ultimately stating that they were not born in the wrong body but were simply a child at the time. The narrative criticizes Senator Sherrod Brown for his support of sex change surgeries for minors, suggesting that he prioritizes political power over the well-being of young people.
The discussion shifts to the portrayal of violence in media, where a filmmaker explains their approach to depicting torture in a way that maintains audience engagement without desensitization. They emphasize the importance of creating a sense of suspense and discomfort, arguing that this method enhances the emotional impact of violent scenes. The filmmaker reflects on the psychological effects of solitary confinement, describing it as a form of torture that leads to delusion and a longing for human interaction, even if it comes through interrogation.
