Ashton Kutcher responds to Steve Wozniak’s criticism
By Tribute on August 23, 2013 | 1 Comment
Ashton Kutcher, 35, has responded to Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak’s criticism of the lack of accuracy in Joshua Michael Stern‘s Steve Jobs biopic, Jobs. Ashton told the Associated Press that Wozniak is biased since he’s consulting on Aaron Sorkin‘s upcoming Steve Jobs film, which will mark the Oscar-winning screenwriter’s directorial debut. “Steve Wozniak is being paid by another company to support their Steve Jobs film,” said Ashton. “It’s personal for him, but it’s also business. We have to keep that in mind. He was also extremely unavailable to us when producing this film. He’s a brilliant man and I respect his work, but he wasn’t available to us as a resource, so his account isn’t going to be our account because we don’t know exactly what it was.”
As a response to Ashton, Wozniak wrote a comment on a Jobs film review on Gizmodo.com. “I suspect a lot of what was wrong with the film came from Ashton’s own image of Jobs,” wrote Wozniak. “Ashton made some disingenuous and wrong statements about me recently (including my supposedly having said that the ‘movie’ was bad, which was probably Ashton believing pop press headlines) and that I didn’t like the movie because I’m paid to consult on another one.” Wozniak also claimed that he was both turned off by reading the script for Jobs and has a refusal to take “creative leadership from someone else.” He added: “I’m grateful to Steve for his excellence in the i-era, and his contribution to my own life of enjoying great products, but this movie portrays him having had those skills in earlier times.” ~Alfonso Espina

Hard to have a movie glorifying one man who was partnered with another guy with a completely different story and consider it truth. I think part of me wants to wait for the other version. Seeing from a close view of one of the men actually involved. Seems like it would be more accurate. Again, 3 sides to every story. Jobs or Wozniak and the film. Or who’s truth or who is closest to it?
