"I'm not attacking freedom of speech. I've been defending my right to stand up against someone who wants to pervert the truth." What if you had to prove the Holocaust actually happened? That's the story behind this film, titled Denial, telling the true story of writer and historian Deborah E. Lipstadt's fight to clear her name when she's sued for libel by a Holocaust denier. Rachel Weisz stars as Lipstadt, along with Timothy Spall as the denier David Irving, and a cast including Andrew Scott, Tom Wilkinson, Mark Gatiss and Harriet Walter. This actually looks very strong, and quite compelling overall, thanks to what seem to be excellent performances and a script by the award-winning playwright David Hare. Check it out.

Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Mick Jackson's Denial, in high def from Apple:

Acclaimed writer and historian Deborah E. Lipstadt must battle for historical truth to prove the Holocaust actually occurred when David Irving, a renowned denier, sues her for libel. Based on the acclaimed book "History on Trial: My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier," written by Deborah E. Lipstadt. Denial is directed by veteran English filmmaker Mick Jackson, of the films Clean Slate, The Bodyguard, L.A. Story, Chattahoochee, Volcano previously, as well as the Emmy winning Temple Grandin. The screenplay is adapted by acclaimed playwright/screenwriter David Hare (The Hours, The Reader). Bleecker Street Media will release Mick Jackson's Denial in theaters starting September 30th later this fall. Anyone interested?
