It's an English documentary about the assassination of President where the film makers actually shot footage of the President in Chicago for usage in this film.

Tasteless? What do you think?

[werperry]

without a doubt... YES.

regardless your view on our president... supporting these types of films are an abomination. for God's sake...have we lost what it has meant to be a human being? i'm all for questioning things....but, did these directors EVER take into consideration the family or friends point-of-view.

Free speeach is great and all... but, shouldn't there be limits? it's a sad, sad person who puts something like this together... :wow:

it is definitely in poor taste.

however, our country has no ability to limit the speech of someone in another country.

Super Bran, while you are right, condoning an assassination of the President is really in poor taste, and NO right-thinking American should want to have anything to do with this abomination.

There is also another article about it on CNN in the entertainment section.
I want to go on record as saying I find this scary and deeply troubling. I think it is in very bad taste and frightens me what could become of it. I hope and pray this doesnt happen for our country as a whole and the Bush family. I dont think he is a very good leader and I know some will grill me on that but I love him as a human being and a brother in christ and care about him and his well being. This film should be BANNED!!!

as i stated in my first post, i agree that it's in poor taste.

i also agree that no american should want to have anything to do with it.

however, the only ones who seem to be condoning it right now are those british citizens who made it.

if americans want to boycott the film, they should rightfully do so. however, constitutionally speaking it would be near impossible to ban the film.

To do a film about the assassination of an actual President who's currently in office is very poor taste (at best).

while it may be poor taste you shouldnt be able to censor it that would be the real crime here
just dont watch it ( i know i wont) and if people in other countrys want to watch it let them they
are just jelous of what america has anyway

the concern is we dont wanna give anyone from those other countries any ideas such as the terrorists. This is gonna make the Secret Services job a bit more harder.

maybe it helps by bringing up other concerns it could be just as usefull as harmfull
