I believe this is the third production started, the only one that made it through?
Hoping for the best - but we shall see. - If not done right - what a waste of a timely, and maybe last, opportunity.
This is a movie the ‘establishment’ does not want out - particularly THIS administration - as it unveils them and the rest of the ‘looters’ - but good.
It might even wake up another whole layer of Tea Partiers.
And if double the number of protesters go to DC this summer - will the One hear us this time - will he acknowledge our right to be heard as he did the demonstrators in Egypt?
This one almost didn't make it through either:

Perhaps scarily, the film version set for this spring almost wasnt. Having already invested millions in the film rights to Shrugged, not to mention investment in various script adaptations (one studio version had international starlet Angelina Jolie attached as Dagny Taggart), Aglialoro, with time running out on his option, considered letting his rights lapse absent a proper studio production deal.
Luckily, intervention of the good kind changed Aglialoros mind in the form of his wife, Joan Carter. As Aglialoro relayed to me, Carter told him that It will haunt you for the rest of your life if you dont make Atlas Shrugged. Energized by his wifes sound advice, Aglialoro courageously chose to produce the film himself, outside the traditional studio system. Thank goodness.

So much for the power of the establishment. :)
