America: From Freedom To Fascism
Year: 2006
Grade: C-
Country: USA
Director: Russo
Reviewthe good/bad thing about the availability of movie cameras and editing equipment is that anybody can make a movie. this one makes a case for a 1984 society here in america. it claims that the income tax is unconstitutional, that the government is totalitarian and that we’re on the edge of having everything we do monitored at every level of commerce and government. i sympathize with some of the sentiments, but the filmmaker’s intellectual dishonesty, editing out of context, and ignorant questioning make me doubt most of the new ideas presented. all that said, it does make you question some things and that’s not a bad thing.
