And, you can mention that Mr. Boardman can contact 
Sam Sibble, sales manager for The Film Sales Corp. who
are acting as agents for this film, at:

     sam.sibble at filmsalescorp.com

(Most films are handled by a film distributor intermediary,
who also deal with advertising, etc.  But Phil Donahue could
not get *any* distributor to take on Body of War and was clearly
frustrated at this.  One theater chain has taken it on anyway:
Landmark Theaters are showing it even without a distributor.)

The film was shown at National Conference on Media Reform
to at least several hundred people, and drew a standing
ovation.  Though the room was large, they had to turn away
about 200 more.

Roger Ebert has a mostly-favorable review here:

or just see

and look in the list of recent reviews on the right-hand side.

I'll say more about this on the peace-discuss list only,
and I've set Reply-To: there.
