Plateau writes about the new film Oliver Stone is going to make: about Ahmadinejad (no, you have not read wrongly):
Oscar-winner Oliver Stone has sent aletter to the Iranian president’s office requesting permission to makea docudrama on President Mahmud Ahmadinejad, stated an Iranian producerwho is regularly consulted by the president’s art and culturaladvisors.
“The request was made three months ago byStone, the famous U.S. filmmaker, who has directed numerous films with socio-political themes over the past few years,” Alireza Sajjadpur toldthe Persian service of the Iranian Students’ News Agency on Friday.
“I think it is a good proposal and I would like the request to be accepted,” he added.
I bet he is not going to consider the treatment of women,
of gays
or of minors (also here) for the movie…
Oh and I bet he is not going also to consider the treatment to the Amir Kabir students.
There are good reasons to believe that the students have received repeated physical and psychological tortures in order to confess tofalse confessions about the allegations attached to them by statenewspapers.
I just can’t stand this millionaires who had no consideration of the real world. What a difference with this other film. Really impressive. Plateau describes Iranian film Persepolis:
Persepolis is the poignant story of a young girl coming-of-age in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. It is through the eyes of precocious and outspoken nine-year-old Marjane that we see a people’s hopes dashed as fundamentalists take power — forcing the veil on women and imprisoning thousands. Clever and fearless, she outsmarts the “social guardians” and discovers punk, ABBA and Iron Maiden. Yet when her uncle is senselessly executed and as bombs fall around Tehran in the Iran/Iraq war the daily fear that permeates life in Iran is palpable.
I will search for it in Spain.

So in Iran, size matters? Well, size of the stoned they use? This just proves they are still living in the stone age. If they ever decide to enter the REAL world, what a nice change for us all it would be.

The problem is that, instead of denouncing this kind of things, I’m sure Oli is going to praise the leader.
These Hollywood people seem to be singing “Follow the thug” -instead of “Follow the leader”- everyday.
Terrorism, Putin, Chavez, the Brits, and American universities
Even though Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said there were no immediate plans to raise the U.S. national threat level, cities like New York have added extra patrols as a precaution. President George W. Bush is in Kennebunkport, Maine, where
Debbie, you an American? If so, I suggest you take a good look at your Jimmy Carter, you know, your 39th president and then figure out about stone age in time. Carter didn’t live and unfortunately, like many others, still doesn’t live in the real world.

Try “the seagull” approach. It means someone who drops a few droppings when expedient, gets kicked out, but continues to persist.
