Sundance/Tim Robbins Heads-up.
This looks like it's going to be really good!


Embedded/Live

directed by Tim Robbins

2004 97 MINS Color

WHAT'S THIS?


Tim Robbins launches a broadside of satirical ammo in this filmed version of his angry, rude and very timely political stage parody. Taking aim at the American military, administration neo-con idealists and their submissive publicists in the corporate media, Robbins and the ensemble cast of The Actors' Gang present the seemingly insane saga of the invasion of Gomorrah, an oil-rich country ruled by the Butcher of Babylon. Likened to punk-rock theater by Robbins, Embedded is guaranteed to amuse, provoke, disturb and entertain. Stereo

3. tape it and host a "showing" for others
i've been participating, with a few other people in my town, in showing films that "tell the truth" ... films on Iraq, corporate abuse, exploitation of foreign labor, and many other topics ...

this one sounds like a great find!!

thanks for spreading the word ... let's try to kick this again on Thursday ...
