Before the hoopla and the inevitable caterwauling critics of the left and here in the Gulch, I'd like to thank you both:

For bringing Atlas Shrugged to the big screen during my lifetime.
For have the chutzpah to stand up to the Marxist crap that Hollywood has become.
For having the integrity to put your money and principles where your mouths are.

A great big THANK YOU.

Regards

Joseph W Gabriele

    An AS miniseries would make my millenium! When I first read the book over 40 years ago, that's how I thought it should be brought to the screen.

    Ditto, but I've been seeing it develop "in non-fiction" for quite a while. Wasn't quite the "come to life" I desired.

    Yes! Thank you for making AS available to the many who do not have the patience to read thick books. Most of all, thank you for keeping AR's philosophy of human good life in the public focus. In the long run, perhaps very long run, it will undoubtedly succeed. An escapee from communist hell will remain grateful to you for the duration. All the best to you.

    I first read "Atlas Shrugged" in 1966; I've waited almost half a century to see it come to life. Thank you all.

    Agreed, 100%, for building a team and bringing AS to those who may not have known about it... and even more so, for bringing this eclectic group of producers together, both in purpose and in friendship... from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!

    Yes. Thank you all for doing what it takes to finally bring AS to the big screen in spite of the many obstacles and flack along the way. "You never know when a mind will open." Cheers!!! :)
