-'Last Days' director crafts John Kerry bio-pic
Source: Kerry-Edwards, thanks to Josh
Steven Spielberg grabbed a lot of press in connection to this past week's Democratic National Convention due to his association with a short campaign film for presidential nominee John Kerry.

'A Remarkable Promise' is a nine minute film by documentarian James Moll. Moll was suggested to the Kerry-Edwards campaign by none other than Steven Spielberg, who had previously served as executive producer to Moll on such films as "The Last Days" (for which Moll won an Academy Award), "Price for Peace," and "Burma Bridge Busters." Spielberg and Moll have also worked together on various documentaries for the Survivors of the Shoah Foundation.

'Promise' gives voters a view into the background of John Kerry through photos, footage and interviews with the presidential nominee, his family, his friends and colleagues. The film is narrated by Morgan Freeman ('Amistad') with music by Nathan Wang ('Price for Peace,' 'Voices from the List').

The film has received a lot of press (for obvious reasons), most of them mentioning the Spielberg connection. It should be noted that some sources are stating that Spielberg directed or produced the film (certainly a disservice to the Oscar-winning Moll), but according to a press release from the Kerry-Edwards campaign, Spielberg officially served as "adviser" to the project. Some recent unconfirmed sources have stated that Spielberg helped with the last minute editing on the production to ensure its readiness for its premiere on the final night of the Democratic National Convention.

'A Remarkable Promise' is now available to view online at www.johnkerry.com in both Windows Media and Real formats. From the main page of the site, click on "Documentary Video: 'A Remarkable Promise' to launch the video.

A Jewish Propagandist but a heck of a talented Director and a Rich American Socialist (the most dangerous kind).

Imagine having the guts to use the word “remarkable” when referring to John Kerry. Gigolo, Liar and Tax Evader are a few of the words that come to mind when I think of him, but I guess that's why I was a Banker instead of a big time Hollywood Director / Producer and Writer. Must be my own lack of imagination.
