Brian DePalma’s REDACTED 'sneak preview' on HDNET Wednesday.
Press release:

CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED "REDACTED" TO PREMIERE AS SNEAK PREVIEW ON HDNET MOVIES

Film to Premiere Prior to its National Theatrical Release Exclusively as an HDNet Movies Sneak Preview this Wednesday, November 14 at 10:15 p.m. ET

DALLAS (November 12) - REDACTED, Brian De Palma's film about the Iraqi war experience has garnered praise from movie critics around the world, and now HDNet Movies viewers can catch this film at home, prior to it's theatrical release, as part of HDNet Movies Sneak Preview.

HDNet Movies will offer REDACTED as a special Sneak Preview this Wednesday, November 14 at 10:15 p.m. ET, with an encore presentation at 12:00 midnight.

All Sneak Preview films are free to HDNet Movies subscribers.

When REDACTED premiered to audiences at the Venice International Film Festival, critics raved. David Ansen of Newsweek called REDACTED, "Angry. Powerful. Incendiary." While David Edelstein of New York Magazine called it "The movie everyone will be talking about."

"REDACTED is a perfect choice for HDNet Movies Sneak Previews," said Mark Cuban. "We want to present our viewers with the opportunity to preview films that are critically acclaimed and thought-provoking."

A fictional story inspired by true events, REDACTED is a unique cinematic experience that will force viewers to radically reconsider the filters through which we see and accept events in our world, the power of the mediated image and how presentation and composition influence our ideas and beliefs.

Centered around a small group of American soldiers stationed at a checkpoint in Iraq, REDACTED alternates points of view, balancing the experiences of these young men under duress and members of the media with those of the local Iraqi people, illuminating how each have been deeply affected by the current conflict and their encounters with each other.

The charged apotheosis of Brian De Palma's filmmaking career, REDACTED caps off a body of work which has explored the politics of image-making and reception more fully than any living filmmaker.

REDACTED will air free to HDNet Movies viewers this Wednesday, November 14 at 10:15 p.m. ET, with an encore presentation at 12:00 midnight.
