Award Winning Documentary, American Drug War: the Last White Hope is Revealed by Panelist on the Real Time with Bill Maher HBO Panel

Esteemed panelist on the popular HBO show, Real Time with Bill Maher refers to the American Drug War film in last episode.

New York, NY, April 08, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Actor / Activist Esai Morales informs the Real Time audience and panel consisting of House of Representative Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), economist Robert Reich, political strategist Amy Holmes and the host Bill Maher to "look" at the American Drug War film. "I was watching Real Time like I do every week," says Don Lichterman, the head of Sunset Home Visual Entertainment (SHE) and the Sunset Holding Co., LLC., "and Esai literally told Bill (Maher) what Kevin (Booth) and I had wanted to do for weeks." The Kevin Booth Film has won four (4) consecutive film festival awards for Best Documentary Film, a two month run on Showtime Cable and will be releasing the brand new DVD to stores on May 27th this year.

The new DVD will include over three hours of bonus footage and beginning on April 20 this month, the American Drug War: The Last White Hope DVD will be made available for sale exclusively at www.SacredCow.com, the www.SunsetainableActionNetwork.org web site and at the Sunset Music Store (powered by Amazon.com). The documentary film boasts informative interviews with Tommy Chong, Freeway Ricky Ross, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, Mike Ruppert, General Barry McCaffrey Celerino Castillo III, Judge James Gray, T Rodgers, Joe Rogan, Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, and Jello Biafra.

Award winning filmmaker Kevin Booth explores the "war on drugs" in a realistic and simplistic way. Lichterman says "there are two (2) very important modern day documentary films that people need to see and this is one of those great films." The other documentary Lichterman refers to is "The Corporation." This particular film company and the distribution companies cannot ask for a healthier initial reaction to the movie. With established actors such as (Esai) Morales taking it upon himself to speak about the films content to political leaders, to world renowned talk show hosts and to millions of HBO viewers, this is the perfect media outlet for any new DVD. Let alone one as important as the American Drug War: The last White Hope.

Founder and Producer Kevin Booth started out in the music business in the late 80s when his band Year Zero signed a major contract with Chrysalis records.
