Death of a President (2006)






I decided to watch it.








I don’t … not for a second.

  1. I can understand your not liking the film. I can’t personally get from there to “no one should be able to release films about”…anything. This is a world where you can watch a film about two women eating poop from a cup. And here’s a film about the (theoretical) assassination of a real, living President. No one made you pay to watch it.

    Freedom of speech is all about protecting unpopular opinions. Popular ones don’t need protection. It’s reasonable to place age restrictions upon viewing, but not “subject restrictions” upon adult viewers. That’s why everyone who initially caved to North Korea’s threat walked it back soon after. I haven’t watched this film, or The Interview, but I’m a free speech and free market advocate. If a work can appeal to enough of an audience to pay for it, or if the artists are willing to pay for it themselves, it should exist and be able to be seen.


    • I don’t have a problem with people viewing the movie if they wish. Certainly there are much worse things to view or read if one so desires. I just thought it inappropriate and a bit one-sided, if you buy into the theory that there is no way the same movie would be made in 2014-15 about the current President.
