Brilliant, reclusive, and the subject of relentless media scrutiny, Durst has never spoken publicly, until now. During exclusive interviews with Jarecki, Durst candidly reveals secrets of a case that has baffled authorities for 30 years. Long suspected in three crimes – the 1982 disappearance of his young wife in New York, the 2000 murder of the key witness in Beverly Hills, and the subsequent murder and dismemberment of a neighbour in Galveston, Texas – Durst has consistently maintained his innocence. Jarecki develops a relationship with Durst, unearthing thousands of pages of hidden documents, police files, key witnesses, never-before-seen footage, and private prison recordings. Directed by Andrew Jarecki, produced by Marc Smerling and Andrew Jarecki (Capturing the Friedmans), co-produced and edited by Zac Stuart-Pontier (Catfish), and executive produced by Jason Blum of Blumhouse (HBO’s THE NORMAL HEART). All Good Things Sunday, March 22 at 4 p.m. ET on Bravo Inspired by the most notorious missing person’s case in New York history, All Good Things is a love story and murder mystery set against the backdrop of a New York real estate dynasty in the 1980s. The drama portrayed in Andrew Jarecki’s film was inspired by the story of Robert Durst, scion of the wealthy Durst family. Mr. Durst was suspected but never tried for killing his wife Kathie who disappeared in 1982 and was never found. The original script was developed by Andrew Jarecki, Marc Smerling, and Marcus Hinchey and written by Hinchey and Smerling. The film stars Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst, and Frank Langella as the powerful patriarch.
