Since EVERYBODY steals from us (such as Monique's Michael K. Williams and Django Unchained scoop from last week, which was reported on film and news blogs practically around the world), why not steal from someone else this time?

I actually don't believe there's ever been a film/documentary that told their story has there? I can't recall one at the moment. But if there has been one, I'm sure someone reading this will say so.
