And enjoy this synopsis:
Whether you love him or hate him, there is no question that George W. Bush is one of the most controversial public figures in recent memory. In an unprecedented undertaking, acclaimed director Oliver Stone is bringing the life of our 43rd President to the big screen as only he can. W. takes viewers through Bush's eventful life -- his struggles and triumphs, how he found both his wife and his faith, and of course the critical days leading up to his decision to invade Iraq.

I'm looking forward to seeing it.
Lion's Gate and Oliver Stone claim they are making history with their movie "W" as it is the first movie made about a president still in office. This is a lie and they know it as Pink and Blue Film's " W The Movie" began shooting in 2005 and finished earlier this year.
Pink and Blue Film's first trailer went up in 2006, our website in 2005 and a second trailer in 2007. When we contacted Lion's Gate, they refused to return our calls or inquiries but eventually they did change their film title , first to "W. the Movie" then to "W The Film".
Of course, much damage has been done to a project we, a very small independent outfit, have sunk much money and time into for 3 and a half years!
Oliver Stone's "W The Movie" is NOT the first !
Pink and Blue Film's outrageous and very different indie film is facing an uphill battle now due to the deep pocketed Lion's Gate/Oliver Stone Film Film!
2 years BEFORE Oliver Stone and Lion's Gate tackled the subject of George W. Bush, an indie film company, called Pink and Blue Films, was already tackling the subject and had the copyrighted name of "W the Movie".
Sneak preview Pink and Blue Film's "W the Movie" Thursday, Oct 16, 7pm Indianapolis! at the Earth House Cafe, 237 N. East St.
If you think Stone's 'W" is going to shock, you ain't seen nothing yet! Pink and Blue Film's "W the Movie"!
"W"...Before the film, there was...the Movie!
" See super villain George W. Bush as an invader from space, bent on ruling the earth with his party of No."
" See George W. Bush in DRAG!"
" See Barak fighting valiantly to defeat W's hand picked successor: Johnny McPain!"
"See a possible future in store for us when Lady Ann Palin joins Johnny McPain in a 'bomb Iran' jam session".
“See W and his henchman; Condo Lisa torture Saddam!”
"See the vision W and his Republican party of No have for the apocalypse and You!"
Pink and Blue Film's "W The Movie... for the freak in you!".
Be cult hip, be there!

'W the Movie' is a surreal satire on the presidency of George W Bush and contemporary American Culture, beginning with 2000 elections and ending with the 2008 campaign. Not only is the presidency of George W. Bush depicted, but also, the effects it has had on our and also featured is the upcoming elections with Obama and McCain and the circus-like atmosphere of media frenzy!
Some have called this a Rocky Horror does the White House!
Directed by Alfred Eaker and Ross St. Just
'W The Movie' c. 2005-2008 pink and blue films, llc
I'm looking forward to seeing it.
