Enterprises, & Taurus Film) / Producers: Bell Ross (Ross Grayson Bell), Céan

Getting into a conversation with two of the four extant generations about the positive
values of this movie could make them want to punch you out (verbally ,at least). Of
course, there's usually no real chance of that happening, as long as you know who
your opponent is. Irrational national fear of rampant anarchism let loose from the
leash has probably played the biggest role in keeping this movie from wildly walloping
endless award ceremonies and taking home most of the prizes. Pity for the
population because, it is, without any question, a knockout and therefore wins (hands
down) the GG for Best Film 99.
