New Moon director Chris Weitz came into the defense of the woman accused of New Moon piracy. Chicago resident Samantha Tumpach was arrested last November 28 at a Rosemont movie theater on a felony charge of illegally copying 3-minutes worth of footage from New Moon. The director was dismayed about her arrest and has contacted Summit Entertainment about it.

“Needless to say, the case seems to me terribly unfair and I would like to do what I can to address this,” Weitz wrote in an e-mail.

“There is, needless to say, a difference between trying to protect the copyright of a film and making an unfair example of someone who clearly seems not to have any intentions towards video piracy,” Weitz wrote.

But he acknowledge that there is nothing he can do about the case.

“I am not sure what effect I would have on the case,” he wrote, noting “the film is, after all, not my property.”
