New film about Simon Bolivar and the Wars of Independence - 'Libertador'

I just thought I would pass on the news about the new film about Simon Bolivar. This was premiered at the Toronto Film festival recently, and presumably will go out for general release in the near future.

The main actor is Edgar Ramirez as Simon Bolivar. His last big role was the main lead in the TV film about Carlos the Jackal: "Carlos", and he was really excellent in that.

Follow the clip below for a sneak preview, and a great shot of the Llanero cavalry of General Paez:

Hopefully this should provide some inspiration for anyone building their Liberators armies, and promote greater interest in the period.
