you guys need to re-upload this with a different audio track so youtube doesn't silence it. I've been looking for a video adaptation of Atlas Shrugged for awhile.
There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.
You guys should make the movie. I loved it! Please make more! You're geniuses!
Rearden did a great job. I'd like to see one with Fransico D'Anconia. I've always imagined him looking like a 20's style gangster, with the pinstripe suit and fedora hat. That would be awesome to see. And, of course, Galt. I'd love to the Wayne-Falkland scene, where he argues with Mr. Thompson.

If a man does not work he des not eat.
But if a man does in fact want to work why should he die of.
or another thought say that a man is working as much as he can but cannot make ends meet why is it he cannot learn. the problem is that any system of wich a select group of people can own it all ex=Wall-Mart we are all no matter how large our ambition up against odds that cannot be toppled.
i find many hardcore capitalists lack religon but is it not the same thing,worshiping an idea of greed
WOW... I LOVE ALL HER WORK. I have all her books, short stories and news paper clipings. Great acting!!!,the black and white was a nice touch and excellent choise of scene.. I hear there is a movie on the works..I just hope that Philip and Hank on the movie do it the same justice you did on here... hat off to you guys..When is part two comming out?
The only problem with this is the discontinuous, non-linear script. Also, what is Atlas Shrugged without Dagny? Claim it before Angelina Jolie defecates on it.
It was for a school project, and so we weren't intending to recreate the movie. We just wanted to showcase certain aspects of objectivism through a portrayal of some of the major characters. No Dagny because it was supposed to be a serious film and there were no girls in our group, so you can see the problem.
I'm gettin' old and it is hard hearing the great dialogue! Read: David Mamet.'On Directing'. Explore 'sequential art' for that dialoge. (in my opinion) :bow: Can't wait to see more greatness.

This is great!! You guys need ti out more scenes from Atlas on film. Awesome.
I'm afraid if Hollywood ever makes this book into a movie, it will not emphasize the parts of the book that you have filmed here.

There is a movie of Atlas Shrugged in the works, expected to be one film of around 2 1/2 hours in length - look it up, should be out early 2009.

Ah! LittlePoopyJimmy chimes in with his communist vitriol.
Burn books. Purge the enemies of the state! The capitalist dogs who enslave the proletariat must be purged!
Stalin purged upward of 50 million undesirables. I wonder how many Hilary wants to purge to ensure her dream of communist America is reality.
Ever try reading something other than Media Matters and MoveOn dot org?
