Oliver Stone's "South of the Border"

[Kim Holt]

I went to see this film at the Brattle Theater last night, and it was followed by a good panel discussion.  Although it talks exclusively about South America and US Policy and Media involvement in forming the American view of the South American political landscape, it is very relavent to what is happening in El Salvador, and the discussion did talk quite a bit about the Honduras situation and about the attempted coup in Ecuador this week.  I would strongly encourage you to see this movie while it is at the Brattle this week, or to get it on DVD when it comes out in about a month.  It is really a great look at how the US Government and media twists the reality to support the US Govt. elite's purposes in dealing with what is happening in other countries on this side of the world.

Thanks.

Peace and blessings,

Kim
