New Clips From THE ACT OF KILLING
The new documentary The Act of Killing is getting HUGE buzz ahead of its release tomorrow in NYC. Why? Here’s the concept: Death squad leaders reenact their real-life mass killings in the style of the American movies they love.
In a very unusual move, Drafthouse Films CEO Tim League (of Alamo Drafthouse fame) sent out a personal appeal to fans asking them to see this movie:
This film DEMANDS to be seen. The Act of Killing is not just one of the best documentaries ever made; it is one of the best movies I have ever seen. Not only that, this film has the power to spur on significant political change and expose a present day regime and society founded on the celebration of crimes against humanity. Because of this, I am reaching out to everyone I know to help us spread the word.
Drafthouse Films also released two new clips from the film. Check ’em out and be sure to see the movie when it plays at a theater near you.
