Liberty Stands Still is about Liberty Wallace (Linda Fiorentino), the wife and business partner of wealthy weapons manufacturer Victor Wallace (Oliver Platt). A mysterious gunman calling himself Joe (Wesley Snipes) calls Liberty on her cell phone and makes her chain herself to a hot dog stand with a large bomb inside it. The bomb, which will go off if Liberty hangs up her cell phone, or when it runs out of battery power. Joe also has a high-powered sniper rifle, her companys best gun, trained on Liberty.
Joe tells Liberty his young daughter was killed in a school shooting by one of the guns her company manufactured he tells her that shes going to die, but she can die a hero if she exposes her companys shady business dealings and political connections before shes killed.
Yes, it sounds a bit sad, it didnt't even get a cinema release in the USA, but is an edge of the seat movie, after a few minutes of action I really expected Liberty Stands Still to fall apart, but I was wrong, its a great movie!
I collect DVDs, we have over 3,000 titles in the house now! I buy most from Car Boot Sales,Poundshops, markets, sales, and greatly reduced from the internet, but I only buy what I want to watch! I do a short report when I watch them, I got rid of almost 800 titles at Christmas 2010 (low score, duplicates, ones I'd never watch etc.) I continue to wade through them, and appear to be buying slightly less, but still watching like mad :)
