Heart of the Beholder-- Movie Update
Didn't know how many of you had heard about this movie. I can't remember where I first heard about it, but it was several months ago.

The story deals with a young couple near St. Louis in the 80s who were harrassed, driven out of business, and their lives ruined by fundies who were pissed that they dared carry "Last Temptation of Christ" at their chain of video stores. The fundies blackmailed the prosecutor of the case into throwing the book at these people.

It sounded like an amazing project so I signed up for their e-mail update. They have now managed to cast the movie, and are still looking for funding. Check the Website for details. Also, they're looking for extras around the L.A. area.

Ya'll check it out. I can't wait to see this thing when it's released.

======================================================
FILM FUNDING

Many supporters have said they wanted to wait to financially assist
us until we had our cast and a locked filming date.

That has been accomplished and additional funds are needed to cover
the extra expense required to attract the talent we have attached.

To help fund our film - go to this link -
http://beholder.com/promissory_info.htm

We are offering a loan interest rate of 25% per year for two
years compounded daily for an overall rate of 64.84%.

Checks and money orders are preferred; however, PayPal
allows you to use your charge card to send funds to our email
address. This works best for overseas funds because our bank
won't cash foreign checks unless they convert to $500 U.S. or
more.

Donations of $25 or more guarantees you a DVD of our film.

The PayPal link is - http://paypal.com

Our email address is - producer@beholder.com

Lenders of $10,000 or more will be flown to Los Angeles and
also receive guest accommodations at a top Hollywood Hotel,
lunch in the executive dining room at 20th Century Fox studio,
VIP tickets to The Tonight Show starring Jay Leno (provided the
show is shooting when we are), a private bus tour of Hollywood
and homes of the Stars, and a Directors Chair with their
name when they come to shoot their featured extra role in a
very important scene.
======================================================
Photos and behind-the-scenes video will be made available
as soon as we get them.

Sincerely,
Darlene Lieblich

4. I know!
Thomas Gibson....woof!

I have a friend in L.A. who's in the biz. I let him know about being an extra. It'd be something to add to his resume.

2. ads on Air America
that's where I heard about it.

It sounds very good. This is a great wedge issue to use against the republicans, to split their fundies from their libertarians...

Hopefully getting one group or the other to just stay home on election day.

3. I guess it must have been AAR where I heard it...
but it seemed much longer ago.

They've been on the air longer than I thought! Which is a good thing!
