Brian de Palma (Scarface, Carlitos way, ...) made a new movie. It´s called "redacted" and it is the most provocativ anti-war propaganda out there so far.

A fictional documentary that shows nothing but the true face of war nowadays. De Palma has said that essentially everything he has put into "Redacted" can be found on the Internet: The director trawled the Web, examining pictures, videos and journal entries made by soldiers, looking at Islamic fundamentalist web sites and, perhaps most significantly, locating numerous photographs of Iraq war victims that would never show up in the mainstream press.

The film won the silver lion at the 2007 Biennale. Despite international honors the film caused a wave of protests in the us, where conservatis push for a ban of the movie.

Damn, this is some shock article i just stumbled across on the FM4 website:

Goodbye, Soulseduction

Die Nachricht über die Insolvenz des Wiener Vertriebs Soulseduction hat wie eine Bombe eingeschlagen: Der ohnehin kleine österreichische Musikmarkt verliert einen weiteren Player.

Die Soulseduction war unter anderem dafür zuständig, Platten von Labels wie G-Stone oder Klein Records international zu vertreiben. Umgekehrt haben sie dafür gesorgt, dass die Tonträger von Ninja Tune, BBE Music, uvm. bei uns in den Plattenläden erhältlich waren.

Diese Ära geht nun zu Ende.
