First review
"William H. Molina's documentary about the biggest game of grab ass since Bob Barker is a film every Texan should see. Only this isn't about a game and the heinous shenagians taking place in Austin isn't about your heiny. No siree, Bob...it's about highway robbery.
When it comes to the Trans-Texas Corridor, Slick Rick Perry certainly thinks the price is right since he and his minions continue to defy the people, the law and any semblance of common decency. That's what under-the-table moohla will do. Yes, money, lots of money, potentially more money changing hands than at nickel night at the Bunny Ranch in Carson City.
Molina is an excellent filmmaker. The production values are top notch in all respects with the cinematography and music deserving special mention as they combine to make TRUTH BE TOLLED one of the most polished documentary films I've seen in a long, long time -- Mr. Michael Moore's offerings included. More importantly, Molina stays focused on the subject throughout, unlike Moore's ROGER AND ME or FARENHEIT 9/11.
The only negative, if there is one, concerns the redundancy among the grass root speakers at the varius town hall meetings. Then again, some Texans, especially my neighbors in Comal County, need to be literally hit over the head to get the point.
Little Oblio wouldn't last ten minutes in Bulverde... "
--Filmmaker Robert Nowotny on his site, Need to Vent
Mr. Nowotny himself has produced three award-winning independent feature films and one Emmy-winning documentary so far in his distinguished career.
Sweet.

"This has nothing to do with right vs. left. It has everything to do with right vs. wrong."

Jimmie Vaughan on Independence Day
This video brings back great memories of last spring's march on the Capitol...but who's that guy with the camera who keeps getting in the shot about halfway through the clip?

"You have a handful of citizens -- people who are really extraordinary -- who said they're not going to put up with it. The first thing they did was actively participate in the Texas Department of Transportation environmental hearings. They got 14,000 people to show up at those meetings which TxDOT really intended to be perfunctory events.
There was a documentary filmmaker who made Truth Be Tolled, which just won the Houston Film Award for best documentary. He filmed the public hearings -- it's terrific stuff."
--Dr. Pat Choate, Ross Perot's 1996 running mate, interviewed by Richard McCormack about the Trans-Texas Corridor public input process in Privatizing U.S. Highways & The NAFTA Superhighway
He appeared as a guest at our Austin screening of the film last October.
Dr. Choate is a native Texan, whose family has lived in Ellis County for more than 160 years. He was the Ronald Reagan-appointed author of a section on infrastructure for the President's second-term policy agenda.
