The Nines was one of the best films of last year, although, chances are you never saw it. I think John August's directorial debut didn’t get much further than a couple screens, which is a crying shame if you ask me. Thankfully the film is hitting DVD store shelves later this month. I highly recommend it.
But in a highly strange move, screenwriter turned director and self professed tech geek, August has announced to his fans that The Nines is now available illegally on Bit Torrent.
"You can loan a DVD, without passing along that troubling knowledge that you've done something illicit," August writes, adding "But if these reasons and/or your conscience doesn't persuade you, it's not hard to find The Nines online. And won't think less of you. Probably."
Wow. But I want to support this film with my money, so I'll be putting down the cash on January 29th. I recommend you do the same. But what does my moral opinion matter when the filmmaker is telling you that he doesn't care as long as you check out his movie.
