But now the very same Mark seems to have go on a apology spree on Twitter; confessing that he was in a wrong emotional state of mind when he spoke ill of the film and its crew.
Some of his tweets these past days on Twitter read, "I feel terrible about what I did to Bennett," he Tweeted. "#Foxcatcher is a miracle. I'm sorry I said I hated it. I love it. I love my interpretation and will ignore the haters."
He added: "I think the problem I had was the context of the movie. It's what happened [that was] so hard. My brother's murder. My career ruined."​​
