“In the 1930s, there was this movement to rid the city and the country of the Mexican community. And what we see is really this forced deportation. I think they called it repatriation. It was taking not only people who were born in Mexico and came across the border and settled, but people who were born in the United States and, even if they didn't speak a word of Spanish, they sent them away because it was someone to blame. It was 'taking away jobs.’ And this was what they felt was the answer, which we see a lot in, again, the politics of today.”
Michael Begler is showrunner, writer, and executive producer of Perry Mason, which debuted as HBO’s most-watched series in nearly two years upon its premiere in June 2020. The critically-acclaimed show stars Emmy-winner Matthew Rhys, Juliet Rylance, Katherine Waterston, Hope Davis. In the second season of the Emmy-nominated series, the scion of a powerful oil family is brutally murdered. Power, social justice, immigration, LGBTQ rights, and what it truly means to be guilty, are among the issues raised by the series.
Begler’s previous series include the Peabody Award-winning The Knick, starring Clive Owen, directed by Steven Soderbergh, writing/producing credits also include comedy series The Tony Danza Show, The Jeff Foxworthy Show and the film Big Miracle starring Drew Barrymore and John Krasinski.
