Video of the Bush Assassination Film

• Views: 1,866

This kind of thing used to be considered beyond the pale, way outside the realm of legitimate artistic expression. Now it’s “edgy:” Watch the video of George Bush being assassinated. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

And as if the assassination scene weren’t bad enough, the rest of the plot may be even worse, because the point of the film is that anti-Arab bigotry in the US then leads authorities to charge the wrong person for the killing—a Syrian Muslim. It’s a sickening Orwellian inversion of reality, a left-wing political statement masquerading as art.

Bush assassination movie�gets U.S. deal. (Hat tip: Ringo.)

TORONTO, Ontario (Reuters) — After you kill off President George W. Bush in a fictional film, what do you do? How about make a deal.

Gabriel Range, the British producer/director/creator of “Death of a President,” the fictional documentary that sight unseen became one of the most talked-about movies of the Toronto Film Festival, has sold U.S. distribution rights to Newmarket Films, which handled Mel Gibson’s equally provocative movie “The Passion of the Christ.”

Newmarket, which reportedly paid $1 million for the film, is expected to give “President” a wide release within the next few months. It will air on Britain’s Channel 4 next month.

In the film, the real assassin turns out to be a grieving black parent whose son was killed in Iraq, tying up all the strands of left-wing victimology into a nice neat bow: Dick Gregory says Bush assassination film may prove prophetic.
