PASS THE PEACE- I just received this from the Center for American Progress.

Dear Friends,

On Wednesday, the Center for American Progress hosted a screening of The War Tapes, a widely praised film that won the 2006 Tribeca Film Festival’s best documentary award. It was an opportunity for us to showcase an important film, highlight our national security expertise and discuss elements of the Center's plan for strategic redeployment in Iraq.

This morning, the New York Times gave the film a rave review, saying that it is “a moving, complicated movie that illuminates, with heartbreaking clarity, some of the human actuality of this long, confusing war.”

This is a film that all Americans should see. This weekend, it is opening at the Landmark's Sunshine Cinema, 139-143 East Houston Street in the East Village. Its success this weekend will determine how widely it will be distributed throughout the summer. We hope you will see this riveting documentary and encourage your friends to do the same.

In coming months, we plan to host other relevant and dynamic events in New York, and we look forward to seeing you then.

Warm regards,
Debby GoldbergSenior Vice President for Development
