But the new news is that you can watch this flick for free now via the NetFlix.
It’s just released. See?
“This movie is: Exciting”
(But, sorry streamer-only NetFlix people, right now you can only have them mail you the DVD or the Blu-Ray – you can’t just stream this to your device.)
And no, I don’t think Vietnam Tom Bruso, or anyone else on the bus that day…
If that’s cool, then head on over to poorly-ratedDUCCA at 50 3rd Street on July 21st, 2011 at 10AM.
I don’t know that Padma will be there, but OTOH, I don’t know that she won’t be there:
Bon Courage!

Now, did they shoot all the cover photos for the “Jesse Stone” movie series in one session? Sure looks like that.
All right Tom, you’re bad, you’re sexy, you’re Jesse Stone, all right now – you’re giving me a 4, try giving me an 8, that’s better, hold it, hold it, click, click, click…
Writer/Director Jennifer Siebel Newsom brings together some of America’s most influential women in politics, news, and entertainment to give us an inside look at the media’s message. Miss Representation explores women’s under-representation in positions of power by challenging the limited and often disparaging portrayal of women in the media. As one of the most persuasive and pervasive forces in our culture, media is educating yet another generation that women’s primary value lies in their youth, beauty and sexuality—not in their capacity as leaders. Through the riveting perspectives of youth and the critical analysis of top scholars, Miss Representation will change the way you see media.
