This photo I took was not indented as any project in relation to the movie. I was just out taking pictures at a park in Old Greenwich Connecticut, and right as I was about to leave, I saw this house in front of me decorated for Easter. It had a bunch of ceramic rabbits placed all along the top of the picket fence. I wasn't looking for anything specifically so I just snapped away at the rabbits and testing my depth of field. Then I saw the flag, I don't know why, but lately I've got a thing for flags. So I made sure to capture the flag with at least one rabbit in sharp view. Now as I started to view the photograph, I was really drawn to the way it was positioned. It hung low but yet it wasn't touching the ground and it wasn't fully opened. I felt it reflected the spirit of our nation by how low it was to the ground, along with the spiritual Easter hope that our young men and women would return home to us where they should be. I love this country and I am deeply saddened on what our political leaders have done for the people of this great nation, a nation that was once loved and respected by the world. I'm saddened at the lost of our civil liberties that have been lost due to the unconstitutional Patriot Act. I'm sadden that most of us don't even realize how much of our Constitution & Bill of Rights, which are there to protect us have been violated under the pretense that it's for our own good due to acts of terrorist. I ask you, why we didn't leave Iraq when we found no weapons of mass destruction? Is it really that difficult for this nation with its superior technical muscle not to be able to located and capture one man, in a country the size of Texas? Believe what you'd like but the time to bring our children home from Iraq has come and gone. We have enough to deal with right here at home. To know what I mean just look at the middle class, what's left of them.
My apologies didn't mean to get political nor offend. This is still the United States and your mind is still free to think and speak what's on it, or is it? Again my apologies my emotions got the best of me. Below you'll find two reviews on the movie. If you don't want to purchase a print its fine, but go out and rent the movie, than you can thank me.
Just saw the film and WOW!!! I would highly encourage every American to see this film and make YOUR OWN decisions based on the very real and verifiable evidence presented. Most Americans complain about the 8 trillion dollar debt we owe but never ask themselves WHO DO WE OWE? Most Americans have never read the Constitution so how can one know if it is, in fact, being violated? My recommendation, starts with Article 1 section 8 and, again, ask yourself Who do we owe and, further, why do we owe it. A little food for thought. ?Give me control of a nation's money, and I care not who makes its laws" (W. Rockefeller). ?If you control the food supply, you control the people. If you control the fuel supply, you control the continent. If you control the MONEY, you control the world". (H. Kissinger). Many Americans are afflicted with this thing called ARROGANCE and think they know, when in fact it is this ARROGANCE that keeps them from learning or even considering something less known but nonetheless true. It is almost impossible to convince someone of something different of what they THINK they know. In my humble opinion, one must put aside their arrogance, check the facts, and formulate one's own opinion based on the facts they can easily find. If you find that you were lied to, deceived, etc, then you have a responsibility to do something about it. What kind of country will you leave to your grandchildren? What would it feel like to know you could have done something about it? I think this very same thing happened in the not too distant past; the place was called NAZI Germany. THINK FOR YOURSELF!!
AMERICA: FROM FREEDOM TO FASCISM
"FOUR STARS (Highest Rating). The scariest damn film you'll see this year. It will leave you staggering out of the theatre, slack-jawed and trembling. Makes 'Fahrenheit 9/11' look like 'Bambi.' After watching this movie, your comfy, secure notions about America -- and about what it means to be an American -- will be forever shattered. Producer/director Aaron Russo and the folks at Cinema Libre Studio deserve to be heralded as heroes of a post-modern New American Revolution. This is shocking stuff. You'll be angry, you'll be disgusted, but you may actually break out in a cold sweat and feel a sickness deep in your gut; I would advise movie theatre managers to hand out vomit bags. You may end up needing one." --- Todd David Schwartz, CBS
