The film, directed by Kevin Macdonald, will be available for a $6.99 rental beginning April 20th. A portion of the proceeds from Facebook sales will benefit Save the Children, the charity for needy children.
 "Marley" is also being released via video-on-demand on April 20th.
 Facebook began hosting movie rentals in March 2011. Digital delivery of new releases and older films has been a highly competitive frontier, particularly among Google Inc.'s YouTube, Apple Inc.'s iTunes and subscription service Netflix.
