Remembering Aaron Russo
Aaron Russo - America: Freedom to Fascism
America: Freedom to Fascism was the final film made by Aaron Russo, a filmmaker who is well known for his films Trading Places, Wise Guys, The Rose and Mad as Hell. Aaron had been a close personal friend of Nicholas Rockefeller at one time and it was after Rockefeller began letting him in on the secret agendas of the worlds elite that Aaron felt he needed to take action.
Aaron died of cancer in 2007, shortly after the completion of America: Freedom to Fascism. Although the film may have actually lost money, it has been said that he felt it was the most important film he had ever made and that he was very proud it. The film became a huge hit on the internet and is one of the most important documentary films ever produced in my opinion. It is a film that every single American needs to see.
From the films website (website was taken down May, 2016):
Aaron will be profoundly missed but always remembered. He was a husband, father, friend, mentor, and inspiration to many. Aaron's long list of achievements includes his work in the areas of filmmaking and political activism. His documentary film, "America: From Freedom to Fascism", debunked the justification of both the IRS and the Federal Reserve as well as exposed their crooked basis. This movie received widespread acclaim, including opening to standing ovations at the Cannes Film Festival. Congressman Ron Paul was also featured in the documentary, in which he presents his views on the economy and the Federal Reserve.
