…or Oliver Stones’ JFK? In the end of the film Jim Garrison lost the case against Clay Shaw — in real life Garrison’s career and reputation was in tatters… but because of the movie and the publics reaction to it thousands upon thousands of previously classified documents were eventually made available to the public… (a cynic could ask – “well, what’s the point of that?”)

Not to say I, or my proposed film, could ever reach those dizzying heights of success (one can dream though 😉 ) — I see their plight, that these four ordinary housewives managed to call the U.S. government to account (even though, yes, the eventual report was a crock, no heads rolled — in fact most involved in high places got elevated to higher places — Bush/ Cheney got 4 more years etc etc etc… and three of the four woman have nothing to do with activism anymore) the stuff of a potentially compelling David v Goliath story.

Anyway — thanks again for your, as always, much appreciated feedback.
