Oliver Stone's World Trade Center is, according to one columnist, “one of the greatest pro-American, pro-family, pro-faith, pro-male, flag-waving, God Bless America films you will ever see.” The New York Times on Paramount's outreach campaign to conservatives. In a nutshell: Paramount recruited the guys who brought you the John Kerry Swift Boat campaign to promote WTC. It's not being aggressively pitched to liberals, according to the Times, because Paramount figured "the entertainment press had covered that base." Heh.
We need more "pro-male" movies, don't we?
