Today, the producers of Atlas Shrugged Part One will be screening the the movie for “selected commentators, bloggers, critics, and devotees of Rand’s work.” I’ll be in Culver City, California for the screening. I’ll provide my initial reactions as well as a full review and analysis. This event caps a busy couple of weeks for the movie’s production team.
The Strike Productions released a trailer for Atlas Shrugged Part One a couple of weeks ago. Here it is, in case you missed it:
Screenwriter Brian O’Toole was kind enough to answer some questions I had about the trailer for a column, “Q&A: The Atlas Shrugged movie trailer,” posted at Atlasphere. The Strike Productions also released a three and a half minute clip from the film. This scene brilliantly distills the key events of Chapter Two (The Chain) – see for yourself:
I was cautiously optimistic about the film when I first took a look at the Facebook fanpage in November. Everything I’ve seen since then has only reinforced my positive impression of the production. I’ll be going into the screening expecting not to be disappointed, and hoping for a solidly good film. More updates later today…
