[ghostsinthemachine]

Dear Friends, Backers and Especially Molly Beloveds,

For Y'all who have supported us, and been so patient-- the wait is over. RAISE HELL: The Life & Times of Molly Ivins will be celebrating its WORLD PREMIERE, in January at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL!

Details will be forthcoming, but we wanted to let y’all know as soon as we could! The finishing touches are being put on the final cut and we will be donning parkas and boots and heading to Park City, to kick off the next part of this journey. We are so honored to be able to bring Molly Ivins’ prescient, relevant voice back to the people!

Our gratitude for all of you is boundless. We could not have made this happen without you and we can’t wait to share it all with you!
So here's to Molly, Sundance and a wonderful holiday season for everyone!

Best,
Janice, Carlisle & James and the entire Raise Hell Team

1. Cool! nt

[malaise]

2. Get thee to the greatest page

I'd love Molly's take on this racist cretin.

[cwydro]

8. I know!

Can you even imagine?!

[malaise]

10. I know we'd be howling with laughter

[cwydro]

11. I know, and I sure would love to be laughing instead of despairing these days.

Darn it.

[malaise]

12. I am feeling much better since the midterms and the Mueller drip drip

They are going down. I understand your despair because fixing this mess will take decades.

[burrowowl]

20. Me too!

[Vinca]

3. It's a real shame she's not around for our current nightmare.

[dlk]

4. Congratulations - Molly was One of a Kind!

I miss her wit and wisdom. Can’t wait to see the film.

[MyOwnPeace]

21. Same here!

Can't wait - what an honor to present her for the world to see what has been sorely missed!

[Hortensis]

5. "It is possible to read the history of this country as

one long struggle to extend the liberties established in our Constitution to everyone in America." ~ Molly Ivins

I didn't agree with all her observations, but I'm glad she's still and always in the battle with us.

6. Molly, my personal muse

I love this woman and miss her so often.
Fun way to spend some time, do a search for her quotes and enjoy.
Can't wait to see this movie

7. Carolyn Wonderland, for Molly

I love Carolyn. Austin based, amazing outspoken progressive that sings like Janis and Aretha and kicks absolute ass on guitar. Born, like Janis, in Port Arthur, I believe....

[Joediss]

27. Great music

Thanks for sharing that.

[BaileyBill]

9. Molly, Ann Richards, Barbara Jordan, et al

Texas has produced some badass women who will be remembered far longer than cretins like Louie Gohmert, Ted Cruz, Tom Delay and their ilk.

[MyOwnPeace]

22. I understand

what you are saying, but there is truly something wrong with putting those 3 names (Gohmert, Cruz, Delay) anywhere near the same page as the 3 phenomenal women that you have at the top........

[Harker]

13. She was a regular at the Conference on World Affairs

at the University of Colorado in Boulder. She lit up whatever hall or room she was in.

[FakeNoose]

14. Awesome news!

She was one of a kind, and she's definitely being missed by all of us.

[Hotler]

15. Woo-hoo

Molly is a great read. She would tear the Red Don up with her sharp wit.

[CaptainTruth]

16. She was one of the best & I still miss her.

I wish Molly was still with us, & Hunter S Thompson too.

[mountain grammy]

17. Yes, can't wait.. do I miss Molly!

I remember a debate she did with Al Franken and Bill O'Rielly.... Fantastic!

[Cyrano]

18. Can't wait.

Loved her.

I'll never forget her remark about Pat Buchanan's crazy, fascist speech at a Republican convention. "It sounded better in the original German." Nobody could nail truth like Molly.

[UTUSN]

19. Molly is who named him "Shrub"

[MyOwnPeace]

23. THAT alone......

puts her into a Hall of Fame!

[Martin Eden]

24. I miss Molly so much.

Oh, how her words of wit are needed now!

[ghostsinthemachine]

25. Back to the top

Molly loved GWB...

[YOHABLO]

26. Oh how I'd love to hear her take on Trump. I can only imagine.
