You have done something that I've only dreamed about. You are now my hero. I love your dedication and all the work you put into this expose. BTW, great editing with background music. My only suggestion is that you edit further to get your point across succinctly. Some interviews were a little verbose and didn't get to the point. Still, a wonderful production.
If you ever want some input or assistance on you next production, please keep me in mind. I've since learned more from my old VetsCoR "With Love and Affection" slideshow on the home page of Free Republic. I've also learned some things from movies/TV about production values, interview editing while maintaining context, editing the entire production, and mostly how to get a point of view across without sounding biased, as you did so well.
Anna, what do you think about doing something regarding the differences between free enterprise versus socialism? This is something you could do and needs to be produced in a simple way that non-political types can understand. Think Jay-Walking where he asks people on the street the most elementary questions and they usually flub the question.
I would be willing to help support such an effort in a small financial way and other ways. Rodger Hunter USN (1975-1986) Ps. Anna, please let me know via Freepmail if you would like to confer on your next project or maybe mine regarding ideologies. You could make a huge impact on those who don't understand the benefits and drawbacks of capitalism versus socialism. It's time to counter our acadamia who are brain-washing our children. I can lead, follow, or just give input, while dealing with data on the computer.
Thank you AnnaZ and RonDog!! Great video!! This is a must watch for all!!
Ping to watch later.
You need to watch this movie....
WONDERFUL ! !
My route wasn't quite the same, but many many moons ago a young lady with whom I was vey enamoured said that tho she liked me a lot, we couldn't go on together unless I read one of her books.
And she handed me Atlas Shrugged.
Yes, I know all the put-downs about it's being preachy and verbose and yada yada yada, but at the time it was precisely the 2x4 upside the head I needed to break free from the marxist mush at our uni.
She and I drifted apart in time of course, but wherever you are, I thank you from the bottom of my soul, Mary DeVore ! !

Anna, this doc of yours is WONDERFUL !
The Brandon kid, at ~50.30, puts me SO in mind of Whittaker Chambers, knowing that he can't just move to the country and 'put it behind him'.
Maybe you've already done it, but a doc along the same lines, but aimed at knee-jerk lifelong 'cuz my family always was' Dhimms.. there are some of my family still stuck in ILannoy that might just benefit from such an expose'.
Anyway, congrats on this, and thanks much for making it available !

Thanks for posting.
(And to RonDog, a huge thanks for this thread and your constant support. You're a doll.)
To the ol' "AnnaZ bump list"... just a little ping out of the blue to say Hi!, and, ICYMI, I made a feature-length film. We'll do a little media romp for it next week, more than likely, but for now it's been on kind of stealth radar only.
Hope you enjoy it if you find the time to view it. All comments welcomed.
Best to all! xo!
Rebel Evolution (Raw Sound Version)
Just bumping to the top again. This is one of the more interesting and important stories you can spend your time on.
Bump to the top again.
Folks, I’m of the opinion that this may be one of the more important lessons of the year, especially after the catastrophe we just went through on Tuesday.
IMHO, this is the MUST see film of the year!!! I shared this with everyone on my email list and posted it on my Facebook several times! Great job by AnnaZ! BRAVO!!!!
