Stop Globalization and the WTO!! Battle in Seattle
(please log in to view the image)
Battle in Seattle is the Hollywood dramatization of the real 1999 WTO protests in Seattle. The movie stars Woody Harrelson as a tough cop, Ray Liotta as the Mayor of Seattle, and Charlize Theron as a pregnant retail sale clerk that gets kicked in the stomach.
In December 1999 the media covered the protests against the World Trade Organization (WTO) meeting in Seattle, but most people had no idea how violent this event really was..
Personally I don't believe globalization can be stopped. Slowed down maybe...but not stopped. The problem is consumerism here in the 1st world , but whatever. I really respect this film's attempt to show audiences what's possible. This movie makes you think...
