With the movie million dollar baby, we learned that reality and bigotry earn best picture. I learned that a catchy domain name, milliondollarbigot.org, some wonderful contributions and some great work with the National Spinal Cord Injury Association, Not Dead Yet, and help from Maine indymedia, as well as folks like Mary Johnson, John Hockenberry, and a ton of other folks. The site got a gazillion page views, was quoted by Nat Herhott, featured either directly or indirectly on fair.org, Common Dreams and a bunch of other websites.
Anyway - Through some very interesting and cool situations - I found myself able to make a short film with many of the people who worked with me on the web site. it focuses on clint eastwood, the ada and other related disability rights issues - it really gives a good view of the controversy - given it was disability activists working on a grassroots basis - and budget - to get our message across
