GIVEAWAY: Rosewater Blu-ray combo pack, ends 2/20

I reviewed the movie Rosewater back in November 2014, and it was very good - I gave it a Yes review. Now I have the opportunity for one of my lucky readers to win a Blu-ray combo pack of Rosewater!

Official synopsis:
Based on Then They Came For Me: A Family’s Story Of Love, Captivity, and Survival, the best-selling memoir by Maziar Bahari and Aimee Molloy, Rosewater follows the Tehran-born, Canada-based Bahari as the journalist returns to Iran to interview Mir-Hossein Mousavi, challenger to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in the country’s contentious 2009 presidential election. As Mousavi’s supporters were protesting Ahmadinejad’s victory declaration even before the polls closed, Bahari endured personal risk by sending footage of the street riots to the BBC. For this, Bahari was arrested by police led by a man known only as “Rosewater.” He was tortured and interrogated over the next 118 days, while his wife embarked on an international campaign to have her husband freed and media outlets kept the story alive.

The Blu-ray™ Combo Pack includes a Blu-ray™, DVD and DIGITAL HD with UltraViolet™.

Bonus Features on Blu-ray™ and DVD:
  • Iran’s Controversial Election 
  • The Story of Maziar Bahari 
  • Real Spies Have TV Shows
  • What Happens in New Jersey ... 
  • A Director’s Perspective
Rosewater stars Gael García Bernal and Shohreh Aghdashloo, and is directed by Jon Stewart.

*Disclosure: I received a gift card to try the new Polar Pizza at Baskin-Robbins. The opinions expressed here, however, are my own. Baskin-Robbins launched its Polar Pizza last month (July), as I talked about in my recent post about them, and because this past month was crazy busy for me, I didn't get to try the Polar Pizza until this past Sunday. My parents and I went to the combined Dunkin' Donuts / Baskin-Robbins near them, in Novi, MI, to split one of the ice cream pizzas.
