The new movie about Kermit Gosnell, the notorious Philadelphia late-term abortionist eventually convicted in the deaths of three infants, made it into the Top 10 films at the box office this past weekend--an impressive feat for a crowd-funded film.
But you won’t hear the mainstream media talking about it.
“We were [No. 10] on Friday and Saturday, but slipped back to 12 on Sunday,” Phelim McAleer, who co-produced the film with his wife, Ann McElhinney, told The Daily Signal. “We are the No. 1 independent movie of the weekend and [No. 5] per screen average across the U.S.”
“This has been achieved despite the mainstream media virtually refusing to review the film, despite it opening nationally,” McAleer added.
Gosnell: The Trial of America’s Biggest Serial Killer, directed by and starring Nick Searcy, is a true crime drama that details what amounted to a 30-year killing spree of Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell. Far from being just a typical screed against abortion, the film explores the investigation and trial of Gosnell, along with efforts by both the political and media establishments to cover it up.

Critics and audience members alike have responded quite favorably to the film so far. It received a fresh critic score of 67% on the popular movie review website Rotten Tomatoes, and a 99% score when it came to general audience approval, for example.
Yet in the days leading up to (and since) Gosnell’srelease, both mainstream and entertainment media have largely ignoredthe film--in spite of its’ opening weekend earnings of $1.2 million, an impressive amount considering that most movies open to an audience five times the size of Gosnell’s.

More MEDIA evil: Smothered: Six Democratic Scandals That The Elite News Media Suffocated With A Pillow This Cycle
The willful omission of the news is as evil as creating fake news. Both have mind control censorship objectives.
Just like they ignored the trial.
We saw Gosnell last night. It was a very well done movie. When it ended, the audience was stone silent and in shock over what that degenerate monster had done.
Upcoming attractions included RBG about Bader Ginsburg and a movie about Gary Hart.
After the RBG trailer, a guy in the audience said “Blah, Blah, Blah” Got the best laugh of the night.
My son and I went last night to see it in a small theater. I’d say 3/4ths of the theater was sold, mostly older folks.
I was mortified at what Gosnell did, then to see the baby picture at their website really nailed home just how evil that man was.
Wait ‘til this is sold as a DVD!
Major sleeper.
I’d bet half the farm on it.
After this sells by the boxload across the country, this will have tremendous impact on 2020 race.
No worries.
We just need to get over the hump right now and stop Pelosi!
Of course; nobody in the elites in either party is ever going to stop a practice designed to rid the country of poor blacks. Others get abortions, but often they are offered in black areas - not a coincidence. Heck, the elites even want taxpayers to pay for the murders!
My wife read that the first time the jury actors saw the photo was when they filmed the scene. Their emotions were real.
Yep, the media truly is hate filled and evil to the core.

I totally agree.
Good luck with the November elections........... positive vibes are needed.

Considering there most likely weren't too many laughs all night, that's not really saying much.

THAT IS DISGUSTING
Iam haunted by the baby A photo of and the video of song from the movie (posted on another Gosnell thread).
There were a few moments of humor.
