Venezuela President Hugo Chvez's promise to fund a film about 18th century Haitian freedom fighter, Toussaint L'Ouverture, is drawing fire from critics in Venezuela and Haiti.

Monday, June 4, 2007

Prval is quoted as saying "We had the first successful revolt against slavery in this hemisphere. It's our contribution to humanity. If Danny Glover can bring it to the screen, we will be happy, But I hope he will shoot it here."

"You can't film in Haiti," he said. "It doesn't have the infrastructure, unfortunately.
