Win a Copy of Darfur Now on DVD!
Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on May 31, 2008

It seems that everyone is quick to jump all over Hollywood-types whenever they make a movie about a cause. Al Gore turned Hollywood, made a movie and ended up as the butt-end of a few jokes. The same can be said for plenty of actors who take their causes to the big screen — sometimes no matter how noble the cause, the hate will rain down. Then there are cases like the film Darfur Now, which I am told is a very compelling film from actor and activist Don Cheadle about the genocide that is happening as we speak in Sudan’s western region of Darfur.
The film is billed as a call to action, and thanks to us hooking up with Warner Home Video, this is a call that you have a chance to receive absolutely free.
