Is Shyne Hanging On To Leadership To Fulfill Narrative Arc Of His Documentary?
posted (October 22, 2024)
And while part two will air tomorrow - you probably already get the sense of where it's going. But one more thing we had to ask today if he feels even more hellbent on hanging on to leadership because the Disney documentary on his life, "the Honourable Shyne" is set to be released on November 18th:

Jules Vasquez
"Are you hanging on to leadership, Mr. Barrow? Because the premier of your documentary is next month and, you have to be the honorable Shyne Barrow. I mean, you already won't be prime minister in this cycle, but it will be a very sad ending if you throw in the towel and you're not even party leader. Do you feel under pressure to fulfill the narrative of the documentary?"

Shyne Barrow, UDP Leader
"Oh, my goodness. Come on, brother."

"The narrative of the documentary is not?"

Jules Vasquez
"The narrative of documentary is about your ascent."

Shyne Barrow, UDP Leader
"No, no, sir. The documentary is about my journey from Curassow Street with the waste bucket to where I'm at now."

Jules Vasquez
"So you don't feel under pressure to fulfill the narrative. The premiere is a month away. It would look really bad if they launch the premiere and Shyne had to step down as leader of the Opposition."

Shyne Barrow, UDP Leader
"Sir, that would make it more exciting. They probably would hold the edit and go back and add more to it. Hollywood is about drama."

Barrow says he will have a screening of the documentary in Belize on November 16th. It is one hour, forty minutes long.
