A couple of years ago, MPI awarded a grant to former Barbara Boxer staffer Myrna Sokoloff to work on a script for a film lampooning the excesses of post-9/11 American political culture. Now that script has been transformed into a major motion picture. Based on the Dickens tale, An American Carol is directed by MPI Creative Council member and award-winning director David Zucker (Airplane!, The Naked Gun); it stars Kelsey Grammer, Jon Voight, Dennis Hopper, Leslie Nielsen, and a host of other familiar faces. An American Carol will be released nationwide on October 3.
