There are several shots of Alinsky speaking. I had never seen this dude before.

I remember watching Saul Alinsky debate William Buckley on the old Firing Line show he had on PBS. Here is a sample.

Saw it, loved it. I thought of those I know to whom I’d want to recommend it—many.

It’s really a great piece that will get D’Souza punished further, or becoming a true leader of the movement against academic Leftists and Barry’s ilk, or both.

The theatre company chose (needlessly) to screen the movie in a theatre that had recliners, at a $4/seat premium. Perhaps they wanted to rake the 1%’ers over their own taxation scheme. I’d see it again, but think it petty of them, wondering “what they’ll be doing on Monday” (repeated, inside joke).

In the credits, an actor was given credit for playing Alinsky, despite (some?) seemingly authentic original material of Alinsky himself.

I’ve seen this video of the slime and he and his ilk have destroyed this country. BB’s stab at him at the time seems intellectually benign. BB may have won the debate but SA has up to now won the war. Get this into our heads at FR —SA has won this war. ( bb is bill buckley SA is saul Alinsky) and my glass is half empty. i’m looking for solutions.

Well, Buckley was brilliant! Thanks for posting this link, South40.

Curious -- you said people were shouting at the screen when you went to see the film. I'm wondering who was in your audience. Granted, I did not go on the opening day, and I went during a weekday later on, but both the handful of people leaving the prior screening and the handful of people at the screening I attended were old white people. That saddened me. I do hope all those grannies and grandpops give the DVD to their grandchildren.
