Here is more information on the new documentary movie called "Bully" that was released in a few cities to rave reviews over the weekend. It appears it will not get to Des Moines theaters until mid-April or the first part of May. Fleur Cinema is likely to carry it (that is where I plan to see it!) and AMC theater chains have vowed to carry it as well. The real question will be how schools around the country react to it, the controversy, and whether they will include the movie into any Anti-Bullying curriculum they have. Our own local Des Moines Register ran a feature story on the movie, the Iowa ties to the movie, and the rating controversy. Please click on the several links below to learn more about this important movie.
