Hello Everyone =

Stopped in at the Globe and Mail and the Toronto Star newspapers, and pulled the following. No info on whether this piece of trash has been picked up, but no glowing critiques either.

"It's also important to note that TIFF works in different ways for dramatic features and documentaries. "All the people who come to Toronto are basically here to buy fiction films," said Jan Rofekamp of Films Transit (Canada), which specializes in documentary film sales."

More on Iraq

Brian DePalma's Redacted asks filmgoers to reconsider imagery associated with the Iraq war, as he juxtaposes footage of U.S. soldiers with the experiences of the media covering the war and locals caught in the middle.

In Battle for Haditha, Nick Broomfield re-imagines the killing of 24 Iraqis by U.S. Marines after a roadside bomb killed a Marine and wounded two others in Haditha in November, 2005.

[Has a big write-up on Body of War about an Iraq War Vet who's maimed in body and spirit.]

None of them I wish to see.

Thanks, brit. Hopefully, this Haditha movie POS will sink like a stone and vanish forever.

Thanks for the PING. I hope this movie suffers a quick death and that the director loses his shirt. I hope the “Marines” that participated in this sludge lose sleep over their actions.

Oh, and the same goes for Brian DePalma and his film.

But I’m not bitter or anything.
