SOUNDBITE: Denzel Washington, actor, saying (English): "He's a good guy. He's got problems like we all do. I don't want to say he's pathetic or sad, but he's struggling with his addictions." On the red carpet Leo explained how the film's message resonated with her own theories on life. SOUNDBITE: Melissa Leo, actor, saying (English): "The truth will set you free. It might be fiery, it might be painful, and it might be the last thing you want to face, but the truth is going to set you free." "Flight" will land in U.S. theaters on November 2nd.
