The Yes Men

just to let people know that this month's 'Bubbling Under' film showing is this Sunday, from 1 til 4 or thereabouts, at the Porter Cellar on George Street. it's free entry, and showing The Yes Men, which is rather good. Hope to see folks there. read on for the blurb which i stole:

A darkly comical documentary, it follows the story of how two anti-corporate activists who set themselves up as bogus big business reps, making ever-more ridiculous presentations at swanky industry conferences. Following commercial logic to its nasty extreme, they hoped to shake the audience from their stupor by straight-facedly offering up business plans so brutal and downright disgusting, that even the most greedy and self-serving of fat cats would be incensed. But, whether proposing electro-shocking sweatshop workers into line with inflated golden dildos, or recycled human faeces into a new range of burgers, the only reaction they ever get is enthusiastic applause… Proving that once again, fact is stranger than fiction! Must be seen to be believed.
