As I have telld many times it´s like a dream

[jemmabond]

Dear Peter, I wasn't born during Mexico '68, but my father told me all about it years later - he was an African student in London at the time. You really are a hero - I can't believe people treated you the way they did simply because you supported your fellow human being. Because of you, I am me today. I was sorry to hear about your death, but I know you're in a better place; this world is too evil for a soul as beautiful as yours. And you were blessed with a nephew like Matt.

RIP, Jemma. x

papers have to find out and investigate this ...i reckon in 2100 PM will apologize for what they have done to peter !!

[markyj3]

Just read about this story on the bbc news websites. It is an incredible story and such a shame the Australian Olympic team didn't acknowledge Peter Norman during the Sydney Olympics in 2000. The bloke should have gotten a knighthood. R.I.P Peter Norman.

[Soulchildsoul]

[salutethemovie]

Thank you for your support.!! Matt Norman.

[bod02]

The movie was very good, and moving.

I am sad that his achievements (both athletic and social) were not celebrated while he was alive.

Congratulations - well done.

[salutethemovie]

Thank you for taking the time to watch and to also comment with such nice words. I hope you continue to look forward to our video's. Thanks again.

Matt,

You don't know me but I've been following your career with interest for a few years on your website. It's interesting, if I may say so, how your story parallels that of your uncle. Like him you set an example that Australians need to follow - except your example is for us filmmakers. You don't answer to the funding bodies(which are morally bankrupt and stifling beauracracies, just like the australian sport culture)... you answer to yourself, your audience and the art of filmmaking.

[RoboDouche]

I can't wait to see this film. It looks incredible. Those of us who are paying attention are really proud of you.

I like to think you'll be recognised at home... but if not, like your uncle, I know you'll be recognised here.

Signed,

An Australian filmmaker in L.A.

I remembered Tommie Smith's unbelievable run as a 10 year old. The ceremony went over my head until I learnt about it as an early teen.

It's with great embarrassment that I have to admit that I only researched Peter a few years before his sad passing. I was heavily involved in the sport as a sprinter in my youth in Britain and now I want to share this great work from Matt with my daughter who like Peter is Green and Gold. Congrats on your brilliant project.

[salutethemovie]

Thank you so much for your kind words. I appreciate it!! Matt Norman

[schutzer1]

smith is in sweden right now and he will be on dn galan in stockholm when i´m dear

[debuglive]

Cool graphics on the trailer (saw it at the movies - looked amazing) and the grade looks great. Must have been a challenge for the people who had to source and organise all that original footage from 1968 ;-)

[nameian777]

Great. Have 'THE picture' in my class room with the words 'United we stand, divided we fall' printed under it. Have told my students this story for ages - now I can show them the dvd.

[salutethemovie]

Thanks for the comment. You should take your class to the film on the big screen. It will certainly spur conversation! Thanks heaps. Matt.

[azzatas]

this looks awesome! Is it at all coming to Tasmania?? or do i have to wait until it comes out on dvd??

[salutethemovie]

Hi there, yes it's coming to Tasmania soon. matt

[gillianemmett]

inspiring

[snedlulu]

Hi Matt,

I saw this movie last night, and you deserve to be commended for doing this incredible story supreme justice.

Pardon my ignorance, but I had no idea of the story behind the picture. I certainly had no idea of the commitment that Peter made to show support for the idea of equality.

As someone who is not even into sport myself (!) I was completely engaged and overwhelmed with emotion.

I encourage everyone to see this movie.

[rogerd99]

Brave guys. What sort of response would this get now if something similar happened. All of them are role models for what is right.

[salutethemovie]

Version, I'm so glad you got to see this. Amazingly this is the first time the real truth has been put out there. Thanks for your comments. Matt Norman - Director/producer SALUTE

[SMOOTHBRIDGE]

Can't wait to see this piece of history!!!

[jewjuicee]

Hi Matt, just wondering where abouts in Melbourne is this film being shown?

[peteenorman]

ahahaha my parents named me after this guy... ironically my dads name is greg norman haha no not the golfer

[JackpotProductions07]

WHOA...thats absolutly brilliant...i never knew the story behind it...i cant wait to see the movie...and i am really impressed with the titles...

[schutzer1]

is it ok if I seend it to my space?

[salutethemovie]

Thank you for your generous comment. I am very proud to finally bring the true story of this historical moment to the big screen. The story has been thrown around so much by others but never really found the truth. As Peter's nephew I've been able to get to all the right people to give a true version of events. I know those interested will love this film. Its a very emotional film with a message. Thanks again for the feedback.

[schutzer1]

when can i see it on a cinema

[salutethemovie]

hi there, it comes out on the cinema in Australia on the 17th of July. Rest of the world later this year.

[jondeedotcom]

What an excellent trailer - who did the titles for you? They're the best I've seen on a trailer in a long time.

[salutethemovie]

Hi there, the company that made the trailer for us is called "The Solid State" who are based in Sydney. They were incredibly good to work with and made sure we got it perfect. Thanks for the compliment i'll pass it on.

[schutzer1]
