WE SAW THE MOVIE LAST NIGHT. 11 PEOPLE IN THE THEATER. I THOUGHT THERE WOULD BE MORE. OVERALL IT WAS WELL DONE. THE EXPLANATION OF THE NAZIS ACTUALLY BEING LEFT WING AND THE LEFT TURNING IT AROUND TO MAKE THEM ON THE RIGHT WAS EXCELLENT. I ALSO LIKED THE WAY HE WENT AFTER THE ALT RIGHT GUY AND MADE HIM ADMIT WHAT HE REALLY IS. A LEFTY. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF LEFTIES WENT TO SEE IT WITH AN OPEN MIND BUT THAT WON’T HAPPEN.

A lot of the material was also in his book “The Big Lie”. One of the most powerful truths he uncovered was that RATS were even crueler than Nazi’s. Even the Nazi’s were unwilling to go with the RATS one drop rule on racial segregation laws.

Have you seen D’Souza in debates? He’s fascinating to watch.

I saw it last night with my son who is in his twenties. We saw it Framingham Ma, Surprised to see the theatre 2/3 full. We live in Massachusetts after all.

I enjoyed the film equally to Hillary’s America. Great at showing all the big lies coming from the left and how they continue through time to search out classes of people to enslave without them knowing. Showed the mutual affection between Hitler, Mussolini and the progressives. Did not know about the young woman in Berlin executed for distributing anti-Hitler leaflets,

My son thought it should have shown the connection to the deep state and how they control both parties. Maybe his next film...

8 out of 10

It’s not a great Film, with a capital F, and it’s not meant to be. It’s an instructional film. So naturally Rotten Tomatoes would not be rating it well. Plus lots of lefties skew the results.

Richard Spencer: He comes off as exactly what he is, an identitarian, I think he said, and his philosophy is that physical-identity groups are the correct organization of society. He thinks it’s the thing that people will fight for.

It looks at first like a kind of postage-stamp-quilt version of nationalism, but it’s completely wrong, because it is based on physical identity, which includes racial identity, instead of identity based on an idea: freedom for the conquered nations of Africa and for India, for example. And for us, identity based on the founders’ IDEAS. Remember them, Richard? Something that everyone on the planet can share.

But doesn’t the beer sort of disintegrate the KitKat wafer in the mouth? And take away the subtle milk chocolate flavor?

When you watch D’Souza debate against a leftist it's a stunning display of a man who blows his opponents away with his vast grasp of history and facts, while they just use defensive measures and attacks.

I watched him debate on a panel with Alynisky’s son and another idiot.....they simply could not keep up with him.

Hubby & I saw it at an early showing yesterday morning. It was at a multi-plex, but one of their small theaters. There were 9 of us at 9 Am. 2 were younger men. The rest of us senior types 😀. We enjoyed it & I’m pushing it on my FB page as related topics come up. Just not sure even my many conservative family & friends will take the time to go see it.

Saw it in Marin Country with 40 or so other people. Thought it was quite powerful. Some overlap with Hillary’s America. Could have done without the solo singing performance of Dinesh’s wife and the Battle Hymn by that particular chorus (I’ve heard better). Dinesh’s daughter did a good job playing Sophie Scholl, the German White Rose martyr. There was applause at the movie’s end and then everyone sat through the credits and applauded again! 4.5 out of 5 stars.

The movie did 2.3 million in 1,000 theatres for the weekend. I saw zero TV marketing for the film. I saw a lot of marketing back in the day for his film Odunga’s America.

The 2.3 million figure is not too bad for a political documentary. It is the lowest opening of his documentaries, but will likely gross about 12 million overall, based on his past films.

How much did it cost him to make the film? Hard to say. The acting cost almost nothing, with quite a bit “in the family” his wife and daughter play bit parts.

Obama’s America cost 2.5 million to produce. It ended up bringing in 33 million at the box office.

Death of a Nation shows a different strategy on Dinesh D’Sousa’s part. We will see how it works out.

This site compares the two films box office so far.

It's good for the conservative-leaning mushy middle who don't need a whole red pill... just a few red sprinkles on the strawberry ice cream 😉

Went to see it today, really good at drawing parallels with history and illustrating that Nazis and Antifa thugs are leftists. Also raises the of issue of how countries die when they lose their foundations and way. Go see it. There were only about 6 people there, but it was the first showing of the day (11:05am).

I enjoy watching debates to observe those giving facts as opposed to those using tactics etc. Gets interesting along the way.
