LIBERTY BOUND "is the film 'Fahrenheit 9/11' wishes it was

Comments are pouring in from viewers in France and the USA about Christine Rose's incendiary documentary "Liberty Bound."

"St Michel extends LIBERTY BOUND to six showings daily."

The only theatre in Paris showing Christine Rose’s premiere documentary LIBERTY BOUND is finding the crowd overwhelming! After for showing 4 times daily, they had to add two additional showings per day due to the increasing demand. In North America, the promotional DVDs are 'going fast.'

LIBERTY BOUND has been compared to veteran filmmaker Michael Moore’s film “Fahrenheit 9/11” on several occasions. Although they deal with similar subject matter, PR entrepreneur Mari Eliza of the San Francisco Bay Area says “They are totally different. The audience seems to be more emotionally moved by LIBERTY BOUND.”

French Distributors Andre Lazare and Patrick Gimenez saw “Fahrenheit” at Cannes. They claim that LIBERTY BOUND is “a more intelligently made film” than Moore’s “Fahrenheit.” They continue their review by stating that while “Fahrenheit” is a great Anti-Bush film, it goes no deeper than that; whereas LIBERTY BOUND has more social significance and isn’t just targeted at the Bush Family or Bush Administration, but rather the entire system of government and society in the United States.

Among the comments made from viewers:

"It's a great film loaded with important facts and information for thinking people. Thanks for your work." - Judith in California

"It was amazing. It was powerful in ways that will have me feeling it for a long time. It totally avoids the head butting of a "left vs right" diatribe but rather frames the most important questions of our time in a thoughtful, reasoned manner. Which makes the ulitmate horror of these truths all the more clear...I was captivated from the opening shot. This is the film "Fahrenheit 911" wishes it was (and I loved that movie too.) Having Howard Zinn so beautifully state his views was a great coup. I hope that everyone sees this movie. Thanks for having the vision and the courage." - Chris in California

"An excellent documentary. I will tout it's value to all the people I know. Thank you so very much. The information must get out!" - Kathleen in Connecticut

"This flick was a seamless blend of the sheer fear card that the Bush administration has been playing on the citizens of this country. In all honesty, I feel that hard core Republicans would actually be moved by this film because it goes beyond the tried and true "conspiracy" formula and gives the viewer real facts and situations." - Cody in Ohio

"My daughter and I just watched "Liberty Bound." We were glued to the TV. - Bambi in California

“…magnificent and I've been sending everybody and anyone in Paris to see it. I sent your site to a friend in NY and he ordered a copy of the film.” - James in Paris

”This documentary opens the eyes of us, here in France - the way of controlling, carried out by the obsession of safety in the United States.” - Kathleen in Paris

”I finally got to see it yesterday and I loved it! I really enjoyed Dr. Zinn's interventions, they were very clear and easy to understand, but he managed to explain complicated concepts.” - Mona in Paris

”I saw Christine Rose's film this afternoon in Paris, and I found it really interesting, ... it's a courageous film, and I would like to congratulate her for her work.” - Christine in Paris

”I urge any American to see it, whatever their political views. It is important that they see what damage is being done to 'freedom' in their country.” - Alex P. (from the LIBERTY BOUND listing on IMDB)

”The interviews are astounding, often chilling. As an American living in Paris, I'm afraid I'd have a problem with the Patriot Act if I went back to the States. I had no idea how it can demolish individual human rights and privacy. Tampering with Constitutional rights, such as free speech, I thought that was illegal, anti-American and downright treason! The list of countries the USA has bombed in the past few years is quite impressive also. My sincerest thanks to Ms Christine Rose for making this film. I'm telling everyone about it and will do my best to send as many people as possible to see it.” - James W. (from the LIBERTY BOUND listing on IMDB)

The LIBERTY BOUND DVD is now available through the official website at www.libertybound.com

France turning into sandnigville

by no wonder they lap up this shit Monday, Jul. 19, 2004 at 8:44 PM

You believe the garbage you wanna believe. Communists still believe their shit will work, too.

Only the land subdued by diaperheads would lap up this garbage...oh, and "Bambi from California"

If America's so bad, move to the Middle East. They know how to treat their women.

saw it

by ZERO stars Monday, Jul. 19, 2004 at 9:14 PM

I've never been so embarrassed for freedom of speech after seeing this tripe. It's like watching an ex-girlfriend solicit strangers to agree that her boyfriend is WRONG about everything. Rose does an excellent job of glossing over 9/11. It's as if it never happened and the Patriot Act was thought up for no reason.

This is one of those projects that if you already agree with the conclusions, it will reaffirm your paranoia. Revisionist dope Howard "Historian" Zinn being attached to this project should be ample warning for conservatives and "neutrals" that critical thinking is out the window while liberal propaganda rides shotgun.

I guess...

by Sheepdog Monday, Jul. 19, 2004 at 11:04 PM

...with the kind of endorsement that the riechtards are frothing, it must be well worth seeing. BTW, even a simpleton would realize that the 'Patriot' Act was drawn up well in advance to the al CIAda attack on the WTC.
Such talk- whew

900 pages, and nobody read it

by more rational Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 2:41 AM

900 pages of law that nobody read before signing into law.

The legislators basically trusted the crew that had been working on curtailing freedom of existence in America. "They're politicians just like us, looking to get some fraidy-cat votes," some must have reasoned when they voted to enact this law.

chickens home to roost, so why worry, lefty?

by Manchurian liberal Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 4:44 AM

the Patriot Act is a fast forwarding of the curtailing of civil liberties that's been going on since FDR, and even Lincoln.

why would socialists and leftists, who want to ban private ownership of firearms and other property and make free speech a revokable privilege, care about the Patriot Act?

If they enacted it, it'd be even harsher laws but called 'The Common Good Act' or some shit.

take my guns?

by Sheepdog Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 4:51 AM

Not without a fire fight. So what other absolute 'truth' are you spouting, ' Righty'?

(sorry, it's true)

by bop the clown Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 5:00 AM

take a good look at England.

Our allies in Iraq, yet socialist at home...

cctv everywhere.

all guns banned.

soaring crime rate.

high taxation.

uncontrolled immigration.

losing your guns is one of the many (lunatic) fringe benefits earned when you place the State above individuals.

that's what liberals do (sorry, it's true)

You're kinda wandering around there, bop.

by Sheepdog Tuesday, Jul. 20, 2004 at 5:09 AM

Because you're not making any sense. I don't know who you're listening to but I suspect it's a lunatic websight full of broad and false talking points. Fools always believe they know everything about anything. Like the rabid weasels of any riechwing blog.
