DVD giveaway: 'Fired!'

By now, all corners of the universe have been notified that actress Annabelle Gurwitch got the sack from Woody Allen, who said of her performance: "You look retarded." Gurwitch used her humiliation as inspiration for an off-off-Broadway event, a bookand a movie.

Fired! is a pretty good film about bad life experiences. Mostly, Gurwitch wanders around interviewing the famous (Sarah Silverman, Tim Allen) and the unknown about what it's like being terminated and surviving. The best bit for me was when she shoots hoops with a former human resources exec, who reveals a few dirty secrets and explains why you're cooked when the words "As you know ... " come out.

Shout! Factory today released "Fired!" on DVD. And the DVD blog has a pair of DVDs to give away.

Update: the DVDs went to new email subscribers Eliza and Wakebob. First two readers who sign up for the email version of DVD Spin Doctor get a disc. After watching this film, I advise you not to use your work email!
