If a hog/pig is mistreated in a farm and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
Those who don’t give a damn about the true origin of baseball stadium hot dogs will not want to invest themselves in tonight’s first showing of Tom Simon’s/Sarah Teale’s documentary film DEATH ON A FACTORY FARM [HBO 10:00-11:30 p.m. ET/PT].
The documentary is for anyone who considers themselves “an animal lover” and they might want to re-think what that notion truly means. I’ll spare readers the gory details (like the lawyer mentions, the footage speaks for itself) and won’t explore half hidden camera investigation, the brave person who does the covert documentation or detail how the court room trial and laws protecting animals (even those who are headed for dinner plates) are inept, but what I will say is: the probing doc won’t leave anyone indifferent. DEATH ON A FACTORY FARM is IONCINEMA.com’s Daily Recommendation for March 16th, 2009. Click here for more details.
