Documentary filmmaker compares Hollywood, Washington [VIDEO]

Virginia Thomas, 54, is a special correspondent for the Daily Caller producing videos of emerging leaders and educators in the public square. Her ear is to the ground outside the Washington Beltway as a social entrepreneur. Previously, she was the founder of LibertyCentral.org (nonprofit for citizen activists), and has worked at The Heritage Foundation, Hillsdale College's Washington office, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the senior levels of the legislative and executive branches of government. She has maintained her midwestern authenticity after 30 years in Washington, D.C. and enjoys motor homing and the Nebraska Cornhuskers with her husband, Justice Clarence Thomas. Her degrees are: Business Communication & Political Science from Creighton University, and J.D. from Creighton Law School (Omaha, NE).

The saying that ?Washington is Hollywood for ugly people? may be more true than we know.

Documentary filmmaker Steven C. Barber explained what Hollywood and Washington have in common: bureaucracy. Barber was recently in D.C. to get permission to screen his new film ?Until They Are Home? at the U.S. Capitol. The film tells the story of the search for the remains of ?World War II?soldiers who went missing in action while fighting in the South Pacific.

He spoke about the experience with The Daily Caller?s Ginni Thomas.

?There?s a lot of similarities between Hollywood and Washington,? Barber said, ?except it?s just a lot easier to get a movie screened in Hollywood.?

Sponsored by Wisconsin Democratic Rep. Ron Kind, the film is scheduled to premier Sept. 19 in the U.S. Capital Visitors Center. For information on attending, email stevencbarber@gmail.com.
