'There are going to be people immediately who are skeptical. I certainly am and have been with different elements of the story and examining what happened in the book, what the characters said happened, what they believed happened, what the reported experiencing. I questioned everything about that. But every person would look at this story, every person who watches this movie, would come away with questions as well as with answers.â?
