Creating history


IT WILL be a historical moment on November 5 when Warner releases "Matrix- 3 The Revolution" all over the world simultaneously. It is the first time that a Hollywood film is releasing in India on the same day as its U.S. release! Ever since the futuristic fantasy "The Matrix" defied laws of gravity with its kinetic stunts, its sequels "Reloaded" and now "Revolution" have been eagerly awaited by aficionados of the sci-fi genre.

In an interview to the Time magazine, Keanu Reeves, hero of the film, had cryptically commented that the 1999 "Matrix" original was about `birth'. The second is about `life' (May 2003) and the third, about `death' (November 5, 2003). His role as Neo the expressionless rebel with a cause in the two "Matrix" sequels makes Keanu Reeves the highest paid actor in the world as his salary of $206 million include 15 per cent box-office takings of the sequels.
