Context
This is the second PSE subscriber email about the Common Wealth film. The first (July 16, 2025) announced the trailer and framed the film as covering land economics, the real estate cycle, and the Citizens’ Dividend. This follow-up announces the Victorian screening dates and confirms the film’s theatrical release trajectory. The film aligns with Anderson’s broader public-education efforts alongside citdiv.org (launched June 12, 2026) — both extend PSE’s Georgist land-economics framework to a general audience.
