Movie passes for the film, Road to Guantanamo
http://www.chud.com/index.php?type=contests&id=6926

I don’t want to scare you off of Road to Guantanamo by telling you that it’s one of the most important films of the year - instead I’ll tell you that it’s one of the most harrowing. If this was a work of fiction it could have come from Eli Roth; sadly it’s all too true. The abuses detailed and recreated in this movie make me sad for my country and the very possibly innocent people who are right now being held in inhumane and extralegal captivity.

But don’t take my word on how good this movie is – see for yourself. We have four sets of passes to Road to Guantanamo which are good at any of the following theaters for the entire run of the movie. People who get passes will also get a copy of the uncensored version of the film’s poster, which the MPAA thought was too rough for you to see. It’s a pity that the MPAA can’t enforce its regulations over the US Army.

Just send me an email telling me why you want to see this film. And don’t worry about agreeing with me – you can still win these passes even if you think that Gitmo is a good thing. Hell, you probably NEED to see this movie if you feel that way.

Send me your reason, your name and your mailing address for the rare poster. Be aware that you have to get your own ass to one of the theaters listed below. Road to Guantanamo opens June 23rd.

1. I've seen two of Winterbottom's other films
He does political drama great.
