Declan Dale is a pseudonym used by Gee Malik Linton much in the way that the name Alan Smithee was used for films that a director has disowned. Dale's only film is Exposed (2016), a Keanu Reeves thriller that was significantly edited by Lionsgate Premiere without the original director's permission. The film, originally titled "Daughter of God", was a surreal bi-lingual drama, reminiscent of Pan's Labyrinth (2006) and Irréversible (2002), that focused on child abuse, violence towards women, mass incarceration, and police violence committed under the color of authority. However, the executives at Lionsgate Premiere thought they had been sold a Keanu Reeves cop-thriller. To increase the film's potential box office, during the editing process Lionsgate changed the story's focus to center on Reeves' character, and changed the movie into a generic crime-thriller. The director disowned the film, using the pseudonym of Declan Dale. Hide
