V for Vendetta
Set against the futuristic landscape of totalitarian Britain, V For Vendetta tells the story of a mild-mannered young woman named Evey (NATALIE PORTMAN) who is rescued from a life-and-death situation by a masked man (HUGO WEAVING) known only as āV.ā Incomparably charismatic and ferociously skilled in the art of combat and deception, V ignites a revolution when he urges his fellow citizens to rise up against tyranny and oppression. As Evey uncovers the truth about Vās mysterious background, she also discovers the truth about herself ā and emerges as his unlikely ally in the culmination of his plan to bring freedom and justice back to a society fraught with cruelty and corruption.
With everything going on in our country right now.. the release of this movie could prove to be really interesting.. Just reading some of the messages posted on the movie web site shows me that the tide is turning and people are finally starting to see what some of us have been saying all along. This administration cannot be trusted. they can't be trusted with our money, our security, our men and women in service to the country, our homeland security, our disaster response. NOTHING.
There is such a veil of secrecy that surrounds this administration it is a wonder anyone ever trusted them in the first place. The Dubai port sale issue is so utterly ridiculous, one has to wonder why anyone would think that this is a good idea for our country. Not only will they have control of 6 ports in OUR country.. but also 2 ports that deal SPECIFICALLY with military cargo and equipment.. WTF!!??
It is at the very least a slap in the face to anyone who lost family on 9-11, it is yet another slap in the face to our men and women in the military who are fighting for our country "over there" so we don't have to face them "over here" .
How exactly can we be sure that they won't have al queda operatives on the payroll.
Just the other day a letter from Al Queda to the UAE was released saying that they had infiltrated all levels of government over there.. oh yeah georgie boy.. that REALLY makes me feel safe, and that you have properly checked everything out.
So now we have a movie whose tag line is
PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE AFRAID OF THEIR GOVERNMENTS... GOVERNMENTS SHOULD BE AFRAID OF THEIR PEOPLE
March 17th.. see it.. before we LIVE IT.
