Robert Durst has been a part of director Andrew Jarecki’s life for years.In 2005, the director began working on the 2010 film “All Good Things,” starring Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst, and was inspired by the life of Durst and the disappearance of his first wife, Kathleen McCormack.He then followed that up with the 2015 six-part HBO docuseries “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst,” which explored Durst’s connection to several murders and dramatically concluded with his hot mike admission, “Killed them all, of course.”The series garnered a host of awards and the storyline appeared to be over. However, in 2020, Durst stood trial for the 2000 murder of his good friend, Susan Berman, 55.Critics who had refused to talk to Jarecki for the first “Jinx” series were now testifying in the Berman trial — and he realized that there was another series in the making.“The Jinx: Part Two” debuted on Sunday.Durst was the eldest son of New York City real estate magnate Seymour Durst and first gained headlines for the unsolved 1982 disappearance of McCormack.Berman, one of Durst’s oldest friends who provided an alibi for him when McCormack went missing, was shot outside her home in 2000.Later that year, after being tipped off by his sister that the McCormack investigation had been reopened, Durst went into hiding and moved to Galveston, Texas, where he disguised himself as a mute woman.The following year, Durst was arrested after body parts belonging to his elderly neighbor, Morris Black, 71, were found floating in Galveston Bay.Durst skipped bail but was extradited.
