And there's more under keyword: hadithafilm
Mehalacopoulos admits he hasn't been closely following the debate in Canada about the country's combat mission in Afghanistan.
"I don't know enough to talk about it, but I just hope that Canada makes independent choices and does it because they think it's right and not because they think Big Brother wants them to do that."
Note she was NOT convicted merely because she was employed by the Nazis. It was the content of her broadcasts that convicted her, specifically a radio drama, not even the offense of dressing as a Red Cross nurse and obtaining quotes from US prisonsers of war in Germany and using their quotes out of context.
This fairy’s tale isn’t going to make it past Toronto.
It’s short and full of nobodys.
The article also mentions that this movie (in Startling Crap-O-La Vision!) does not have a North American distributor yet.
With DePalma’s no-budget anti-war opus also on the market, I * do * think this movie may have its run in Toronto and die a deserved inglorious death.
Am I that obvious that I didn't bother to read the article?
Eric Mehalacopoulos, Elliot Ruiz and Andrew McLaren have forsaken their brother Marines for the almighty buck. They are sad excuses for Americans and have forgotten the meaning of Semper Fidelis, in reality they probably never had it in the first place.
The clairvoyance of your perception is already legendary.
The bargain rack at the dollar store in twenty days or less.
That is my favorite vintage pic.
I just can’t bring myself to read the Gazette story. My head already hurts from clenching my teeth as I read the idiotic, “It’s not true-true.” Ugh. No, you dorkosaurus, it is false-false, and you are helping perpetuate a disgusting lie. I hope you lose sleep over it.
I added your post onto the web at Free Dominion:- "It's a movie, so it's not true-true, but the basics are there" [says nitwit in Haditha movie] ^, and I added the listings for the venues it's playing at:
PUBLIC SCREENINGS
Tuesday September 11 -- 06:45PM -- SCOTIABANK THEATRE 3
Thursday September 13 -- 03:15PM -- SCOTIABANK THEATRE 3
Saturday September 15 -- 09:00AM -- ROYAL ONTARIO MUSEUM.
Thanks, brit.
Sept. 11. Ghoulish timing.
It’s only my opinion but I believe any theater chain that shows any of these anti-military pieces of trash will see a backlash from it.
Welcome to Free Republic ping.
Monday saw the preem of Anglo helmer Nick Broomfield's Iraq docudrama "Road to Haditha," another in the long line of issue-heavy pics currently making the Toronto, and world fest, rounds. Broomfield pic is a blow-by-blow re-creation of the events that led to a platoon of U.S. Marines killing 24 Iraqi civilians in the town of Haditha.Hope they lose their shirts!
"This film was a chance to go beyond the headlines," said "Haditha" producer Donall McCusker. "The war in Iraq is one of the most significant events in the world today. For us to be scared about talking about it and tackling it because it's seen on the news everyday would be the wrong thing to do. I don't think there are too many films about Iraq being made, although I accept there are a lot of Iraq films being made."
