Continuing with my epic embedding I thought this SnagFilms politics widget was appropriate. I recommend watching Run Granny Run and Can Mr. Smith Get To Washington Anymore?

Also just a heads up that the latest film from Annie Sundberg and Ricki Stern, The End of America, based on the book by Naomi Wolf, will be on Snag from October 21st just after it has premiered at the Hamptons International Film Festival. Sundberg and Stern previously made the powerful docs The Trials of Daryl Hunt and The Devil Came on Horseback. I just watched the trailer of The End of America and have to say I swallowed rather hard at the line “Americans feel differently inside than other people do because liberty is internal.” I think liberty is internal to many people in many nations across the globe and to think otherwise is a worrying example of the kind of American hubris that keeps getting all of us into all kinds of trouble but, that said, this does look like an important film for these dark times.
