David Kelley Reviews Atlas Shrugged Part 1 ^

02/25/2011 8:04:05 AM PST · by Ed Hudgins · 33 replies The Atlas Society - The Center for Objectivism ^ | February 24, 2011 | David Kelley “Midas Mulligan,” says the shadowy figure who accosts the prominent banker in Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged. “Who’s asking?” “Someone who knows what it’s like to work for himself and not let others feed off the profits of his energy.” So begins Atlas Shrugged Part I, the independent adaptation by “The Strike” Productions, scheduled for theatrical release April 15, 2011. The skeptics are wrong. Ever since the project launched last April, skeptics have wondered how a film with a limited budget of $10 million, rushed production schedule, and lack of big-name talent could possibly do justice to the novel. Over a...

Atlas Movie To Change World ^

02/21/2011 12:19:39 PM PST · by Shout Bits · 29 replies Shout Bits Blog ^ | 2/21/2011 | Shout Bits Ayn Rand’s tome, Atlas Shrugged, is often credited for changing people’s lives with its cautionary tale of business colluding with government to destroy freedom and prosperity. The novel, which has sold about seven million copies, has seen its influence grow under the Obama Administration. Writers like Steve Moore of the Wall Street Journal have noted how Pres. Obama’s aggressive socialist agenda mirrors Atlas’s fifty year old plot. It is no surprise, then, that Atlas is selling better than ever, over half a million copies in 2009 alone. Even the movie industry, anything but a friend to liberty and capitalism, could...

What was it like to attend the ten-minute sneak-peek of the Atlas Shrugged movie earlier this month in New York City? An Atlasphere member relates his firsthand experience.

On December 7, 2010, I attended the “Atlas Shrugged” movie event hosted by the Atlas Society. I had no idea how many people would attend; I had made my RSVP through Facebook, which listed only seven registered attendees.
