Producer/Director Steps Up Activities on Constitutional Film

Re-Orientation to the Constitution is Goal of Film; Necessity Increasingly Evident, Says Producer

(LOS ANGELES, CA) – Film producer and director Norm Novitsky (http://www.normnovitsky.com) has increased the pace of efforts on his constitutional feature film “In Search of Liberty” after expressing his concern over what he calls “the declining adherence and attention paid to our founding document by today's lawmakers and citizens.”
Novitsky's feature film “In Search of Liberty” is fully scripted and, with a short introductory film completed already [available on request], Novitsky says the filming should start in the near future. He has reiterated his eventual plan to see this film completed and placed in the hands of every elected official and legislator in the country.
“What we're seeing in this society is a further and further departure from the intentions and ideals envisioned by our Founding Fathers, and embodied in the Constitution,” says Novitsky. “This is the main factor behind our economic problems and behind arguments in the media about what the government should 'allow.' It's just ignorance or deliberate neglect of our Constitution.”
Novitsky cites the argument of 2nd Amendment advocates vs. gun control activists: “A clear reading of the 2nd Amendment, and of other writings of our Founding Fathers, leaves no doubt that their direct intent was an armed populace as a safeguard against governmental tyranny. But in the media, very few articles on this debate even touch upon the actual purpose of this amendment. Instead, they will talk about 'commonsense limits' to magazine sizes and how 'dangerous' guns can be. That's the point—they're dangerous to potential tyrants!”
He continues: “The Founding Fathers saw the danger of an over-reaching government directing every aspect of the lives of its people, and they sought to prevent that with the Constitution. The Tenth Amendment—which says that citizens and state governments have the greatest rights, and the federal government only has the specific powers listed in the Constitution—is proof of that. Only utter disregard for these limits could lead to the vast powers enjoyed by 'Uncle Sam' today.”
Novitsky says his film will “visually demonstrate the application and relevance of the Constitution” to modern-day America. “That's why I'm so intent on this,” he says. “This is what this country needs: re-orientation to the Constitution and our founding principles. I want to give it that push in the right direction.”

Constitutional Film Maker Likens the Constitution to Tenets of a Successful Business

(LOS ANGELES, CA) – Film producer and director Norm Novitsky (http://www.normnovitsky.com), who is currently working on a feature film entitled “In Search of Liberty,” says that his film will visually show how the birth of a new nation adopting a well thought out and brilliant doctrine, the US Constitution, has given rise to the most powerful and wealthiest nation in history. Along with being a filmmaker Norm is also a successful business man and attributes his success in sensible, fair practice policy adopted and followed, resulting in a business organization’s success. When principle policies in an organization is violated and not followed deterioration of that business results and so it holds true with the US Constitution and we are now seeing a once wealthy and powerful nation in decline.
“The need for successful principles and policies should be obvious to anyone who has successfully run a company, or studied well the subject of business administration. What might not be so obvious is how this fact, and other fundamentals of the business world, apply in the realm of our government. That's where we are going in this film.”
Novitsky, who has recently recommended several basic sources on the US Constitution and its relation to current events, says this education is important “because it's basic policy. You wouldn't go to work for a company without having any idea of their senior policy, and you certainly wouldn't try to run the company without knowing it! And yet in our society, we neglect constitutional education and then wonder why we have such a mess economically.”
Asked what he plans to accomplish with his film, Novitsky gives a far-ranging goal: “Ultimately, I want to see to a complete reorientation of our country to its basic founding policy: the Constitution. The first step in that direction is education - not only in our schools, but of those currently in office. We have a very gregarious [friendly] president, but the question we need to ask, of him or any other elected official, is not 'how likeable is he?' It's 'how well does he know, and how willing is he to follow, the fundamentals in our Constitution?' Before I'm through I want to see a copy of this film in the hands of every US elected official. I think we'll see a new light dawning thereby.”
