if you happened to ask what he's been doing for the last few years since missing out on playing aragon in LOTR, well apparently writing, producing! and directing Battle in Seattle, about the protests in 99 that managed to paralise the WTO.

anyone see the interview on the late late when pat kenny only just managed not to spend the whole the interview asking about his famous girlfriend? what a insulting prat.

anyway yes its a hollywood liberal version of events and bound to get criticized from both the left and the right, but it only cost $10m and managed to get distributer at toronto festival where it got an ovation and its been getting quite good reviews for the way it showed many sides of what happened that day, with an ensemble cast playing protesters, passer by, police, the mayor WTO delegates etc and real footage...

stars Michelle Rodriguez and andre 3000 as protestors, Woody Harrelson as a cop!, Ray Liotta as the mayor and yes charlize theron has small part...,

apparently he seems to falls into the good protestor bad protestor trap and his harshest views are for the anarchist who smashed windows etc, invoking the wrath of the riot police to over react on everyone...
