There's another interesting copyright issue regarding the film in question here, "All Things Fall Apart". Apparently, 50 Cent wanted to call the movie "Things Fall Apart", but Chinua Achebe, who wrote a famous book by that name in 1958, refused to sell him the rights for $1 million. The crazy part of this is that Achebe took the title from a line from Yeats' 1919 poem "The Second Coming". How Achebe can turn around and prevent someone else from using a title he himself borrowed is beyond me. http://www.theguardian.com/music/2011/sep/14/chinua-achebe-50-cent
