The following comes from a Dec. 15 story in the Hollywood Reporter.
John Sullivan, who co-directed a couple of the more successful political documentaries in history, will executive produce Gosnell, a movie being made independently through a historic crowdfunding campaign that has raised more than $2.2 million thus far at Indiegogo.com.
Sullivan co-directed Dinesh D’Souza’s debut film, 2016: Obama’s America as well as its follow-up, America. The former earned $33 million at the domestic box office, making it the second-most-popular political documentary of all time. The latter earned $14 million, also a very strong showing for a documentary film.
Gosnell is planned as a scripted drama about Dr. Kermit Gosnell, an abortion doctor imprisoned without the possibility of parole for murder and involuntary manslaughter. A grand jury found that, over several decades until convicted in 2013, Gosnell committed very late-term abortions, killed babies and endangered the lives of his patients.
Although the project quickly exceeded its $2.1 million goal — and in doing so, set a then-record at Indiegogo for a movie — it recently became one of the few film projects taking part in the site’s “forever funding” beta test, which allows projects to raise money long after the originally stated goal has been met.
Gosnell is produced by Phelim McAleer and his wife, Ann McElhinney, along with Magdalena Segieda, and the filmmakers are expected to announce today the addition of Sullivan. The movie, which was originally planned as a TV movie but now will be a feature film, is written by Andrew Klavan, a novelist whose True Crime was turned into a movie starring and directed by Clint Eastwood and whose Don’t Say a Word was made into a movie starring Michael Douglas.
Sullivan said his goal is to bring the story of Gosnell — including the media personalities, pro-choice activists and bureaucrats who enabled him — “to the screen in a factual but compelling way in all of its unfortunate details. It is a tragic but mesmerizing story of a man who has been called the biggest serial killer in America.”

Perhaps, outside the institutions of large movie studios, outside the Church structure, outside government, outside academia, the truth will now begin to be told. The happy face on abortion, homosexual sex and relationships, adultery, fornication, pornography, need to be ripped off and publicly shown to be what it is.
Only then can people begin to reject these things, and embrace their roles as children of God, who have a proclaimed destiny, under Christ, to be above the angels, and to work the will of the Father.
That is something that will not be said during the October Synod.
St. Christopher,
Perhaps it will be brought out in the October Synod, you see the last Synod consisted of hand picked delegates, but I understand that the October Synod will consists of all eligible Bishops and Cardinals.
Pray and pray hard!
God bless, yours in Their Hearts!
May God have mercy on an amoral Amerika and His Church!
Viva Cristo Rey!
