LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1 (UPI) -- Canadian filmmaker Paul Haggis is praising his fellow former Scientologist Leah Remini for leaving and speaking out against the controversial church.
Haggis quit the organization in 2009 after 35 years.
The "Crash" filmmaker and "Million Dollar Baby" scribe-producer said in an open letter to The Hollywood Reporter Remini was "one of two Scientologists who had refused to 'disconnect'" from him when he left. He also describes her as "a class act and a lovely human being."
