    Seth is honestly such a good interviewer. I was wondering where on earth he could go from there and he ended it perfectly.

    Seth interviews like we are eavesdropping on a private conversation. I really love his style.

    Mr Talese is a legend and an American treasure; not his best book, but still good. And props to Mr Myers, great choice of interviewee and really good questions

    After watching 'Voyeur', it seems like both Talese and Foos are weird guys. Tales thinks so highly of himself I wonder about narcissism, and Foos seems lonely, simple, and willing to do anything to feel connected to people. I worry too about Anita, his wife, who seems codependent.
    The documentary made me feel sad for all three.

      Can't stand Talese. You see his true colors come out in that scene when he's scolding the whole camera crew and not letting anybody talk.

    Gerald Foos is quoted in several places as saying Earl Ballard died 10 years ago. And heres Gay Talese is saying he called him up recently to ask about owning the hotel in the 80s. So who's lying?

      In the Netflix documentary, I think Gerald said he did it to “protect” Earl because apparently they were both “voyeuring” at times. He also said Earl wouldn’t admit to it so better not drag his name to his stories to Gay.
      When this was found out afterwards after the book was published, Gay was angered and called Gerald a liar (although I dont know why he never bothered to check the motel’s ownership records all those years).

    Bravo for interviewing him and treating him the same as any other important person in history. I believe if you sourround yourselves with people older and wiser than you...your bound to learn something

    • @trishaann1616

      He's older but he let a piece of crap peeping Tom con him. He lied about the murder. He lied about when he bought and sold the motel. Who knows if there's one true story in there.

    Why did did reports show stuff from 1966 - 1969, when he bought the motel in 1969? That never got cleared up.

      They talked about it in the documentary. It was simply a documentation error, he literally just wrote it wrong.

      I get that there could be a error, regarding the letter 6 and 9. But he also wrote about 67 and 68.
      So that in my mind, does not clear it up, if we go with his excuse.

    The tone of the Netflix documentary is… almost cute. Polished-cute. So much glittering attention on Foose and Talese, failing those who were spied on.

      +Verena They probably mean Peter O'Toole. Seth and Gay talk about Peter later on in the interview. O'Toole died in 2013.
