Wow. There's a movie of THE SHOCK DOCTRINE.

[proud2BlibKansan]

I'm watching it now on Sundance.

Had no idea. What a nice Black Friday treat.

1. We had that on TV here in the UK

a while back. The DVD is £9.99 on Amazon here in the UK too. http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003NEQ7HU/ref=asc_df_B003NEQ7HU1392725?smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&tag=googlecouk06-21&linkCode=asn&creative=22206&creativeASIN=B003NEQ7HU

But - you can watch the whole of it here anyway :) http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4231109320246838401#

2. Thanks for the link. I watched some of this on Sundance the other day.

Will be watching this tonight. Everyone should watch this movie just to see what a bunch of shits laissez-failures are.

9. Yeah, I saw it last night............

It's been a couple of years since I read the book, but it looked to be pretty faithful to it.

I just wish the movie AND the book would get wider exposure, but that's probably impossible with what we have that passes for mass media.

10. I watched some of it this afternoon and plan on going back to it this evening. did you see

all those chileans getting patted down. made me think of something else.....

[socialist_n_TN]

11. The entire last 4 decades have been...........

devoted to capitalist application of the Shock Doctrine to progressively more and more advanced societies. It's come for us or, at least, will be coming for us shortly. I figure next year.

12. kick for later

13. Thanks for letting us know about this, I had never heard

that they made a movie, either.

[Bucky]

14. Who's in it?

If it's another Mel Gibson revenge-flick, no thank you.

[Little Star]

16. Naomi Klein is the only actual cast. It's more of a documentary...

than a movie and she is the narrator. It is well worth watching. The things she points made me sick to my stomach. I will be watching a second time because it was to fast moving to grasp every thing in it.

Every American should watch it imho. Our government has/still is doing horrible things around the globe so that the rich can get richer. In my own humble opinion, America is now just the next victim of shock, it will only get worse for us.

18. If you haven't already, READ THE BOOK..........

It'll provide you with enough background to make the movie easier to watch and understand.

[Little Star]

19. Thanks. I do intend to get the book.

17. Big K & R !!!
