There have been many posts here at the Injuryboard about the McDonalds coffee case. Few will come close to capturing the topic and to show the ways that the tort reforms have abused the truth as does the movie’s filmmaker and director, Susan Saladoff with "Hot Coffee"
It was great to hear that out of more than 1,000 motion picture entries, the documentary has been selected for the U.S. Documentary Competition at the Sundance Film Festival in January.
Hopefully, this will get the movie the national exposure that the story deserves. Justice and the truth will be served if it does.
Update: it has been announced that HBO has picked up the movie. According to Deadline New York, this means
HBO licensed the film for broadcast and VOD for 2 years, and will afford the film a qualifying Oscar theatrical run before it airs on the pay channel.
The premiere is on Monday, January 24th, noon, at the Temple Theater in Park City.
