Patrick Warburton, an American actor and film producer, is leaving it up to viewers to decide about Sara Jane Moore's sanity after watching the documentary "Suburban Fury" about her attempt to assassinate former President Gerald Ford.

The film, which debuted at the New York Film Festival, focuses on Moore and the events that led to her unsuccessful attempt to kill Ford in 1975.

Warburton, executive producer and investor of "Suburban Fury," stated during a video interview with Planet Chronicle Digital that her agreement with Rob was that she would be the only person interviewed.

On Sept. 22, 1975, Moore attempted to end his life by firing two shots at Ford outside the Saint Francis Hotel in San Francisco. This was the second attempt on the Republican's life in a month.

In 1975, Squeaky Fromme, a Manson follower, attempted to assassinate Ford with a .45-caliber pistol. She was sentenced to life in prison but was released on parole in 2009.

According to the "The Emperor's New Groove" voice actor, Robinson Devor, who directed "Zoo," "Pow Wow," and "The Woman Chaser," adapted Moore's story inside 15 years.

Warburton stated that the documentary's release, which occurred less than a month after the second attempt on former President Donald Trump's life, may seem intriguing in terms of timing.

"The story's significance remains unchanged regardless of the political climate or events happening in the country," Warburton stated. "It remains just as intriguing or relevant, even during periods of assassination attempts. We've experienced them since the inception of our nation."

On April 14, 1865, Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, was assassinated.

The actor from "Rules of Engagement" stated that it is up to the "Suburban Fury" audience to determine whether Moore's behavior is rational, narcissistic, or psychotic.

"Warburton stated that truly insane individuals often appear normal, and their intelligence and cunning make them difficult to detect."

In 1979, three years after her imprisonment started, Moore and another inmate escaped from a 12-foot prison fence. However, they were soon recaptured by police. In 2019, she was reincarcerated for violating her parole terms.

"She seemed normal to me," he added.

Moore, a former FBI informant turned leftist radical, "played both sides" and is "seemingly not remorseful" for her unsuccessful murder attempt, according to Warburton.

"Suburban Fury," a documentary featuring archival footage and present-day storytelling, explores the events of Moore at 1 hour and 55 minutes.

"Warburton stated, "I believe it's absolutely worth every moment, but at the end, she seems sad and lost.""

"Determining what is accurate or not, as opposed to what someone else believes or their perspective on something, is crucial," Warburton stated. "It's a complex puzzle to solve."

Warburton was eager to work with Devon despite knowing little about Moore, attributing his enthusiasm to his "artistic approach" to film production.

"Warburton stated that Rob doesn't require much financing for the $500,000-budgeted documentary, and he manages to achieve a lot with minimal resources."
