Testimonials

"This is one of the best magazines in this
country. I encourage you to read it. I'm a big
fan of it. I learn things I don't know and I
read their analysis and it's very enlightening.
I couldn't believe it when I read the first
issue of it, both the subjects that were being
covered or being written about are being said
in a very different way than what you're used
to. Not only highly readable, it's inspiring.
I will continue to be a reader and a subscriber
and I bought a subscription for all my crew
on my last movie. It's a real gift to have
Current Affairs..."
