TORONTO -- International critics at the 31st Toronto International Film Festival gave an award to the controversial British television movie "Death of a President," which centers on a fictionalized assassination of President George W. Bush.
British director Gabriel Range's "Death of a President" stirred up a strong reaction even before it premiered at the festival and won the Prize of the International Critics (FIPRESCI Prize). The jury of film critics cited the film "for the audacity with which it distorts reality to reveal a larger truth."

When Republicans do the same thing they call it "Fox News".
I guess that would be the Joseph Goebbels award.
Valerie Plame
Huh?
Everything the libs don't like about Bush, they REALLY WON'T LIKE about a President Cheney.
Well said. Should be the first thing taught in high school social studies classes. Of course the educrats would turn it into an anti-gun thing which is totally NOT the point.
The Toronto Film Festival, AKA "The Kill Bush and Blair Film Festival."

Absolute Alice in Wonderland logic that only simple minded & leftists bow to.
This reminds me of Canadian Bacon.
Uh, no. Fox News doesn't advocate the assassination of political opponents. How about you, Mom? Watching Bush bleed to death on a Chicago street - would you find that amusing?
You can twist perception, reality won't budge - RUSH
Big surprise. Anything anti-Bush, anti-American, and/or anti-Christian would have been *cough* honored.
I'm sure his family isn't at all happy about this, but I suspect Pres. Bush sees the bigger picture and it's entitled "BACKLASH." I think this movie about the assassination of a sitting president will completely offend the so-called non-politicals and moderates.
Liberals are SO predictable.
You KNEW Al Gore's book would win awards.
You KNEW Michael Moore's movies would win awards.
You KNOW ahead of time who will win Grammies, Oscars, Book of the Month, etc...if it is anti-Christian, anti-conservative, or anti-Bush...it will win.
