P1167 Making a moving picture is an exercise of the right of free speech, but even if the general subject matter of the movie is of public interest, if the persona of a plaintiff depicted in it is not of public interest, an action based on the allegation that the movie depicted plaintiff in an unfavorable light does not arise from an exercise of the right of free speech on a public issue and is not subject to the anti-SLAPP statute.CitationDYER v CHILDRESS (Reality Bites) 147 CA4 1273 [See: CCP 425.16; Consumer Justice v Trimedica 107 595, T/AT 5/03]
