    I read the book Facing Ali a few years ago. I never imagined it would be turned into a documentary film. The trailer gives you goose bumps. I can’t wait to see it. You guys do a terrific job of finding stuff like this. Thanks.

    I saw the trailer before Crank High Voltage. This trailer momentarily snapped me out of my blood lust and I got a little chill watching it. Very well made trailer. I will definitely check this movie out.
