On npr tonight there was a one hour interview with someone who had reviewed the movie (of course i can't think of his name) and is politically on top of things and has met mm. It is not abrasive. it is a tear- jerker. mm got a hold of a video last dec. (from a reporter) from a prison in Iraq (not any of the prisons we have heard about in recent days) that shows american soldiars abusing iraqy prisoners. This is several months before the public was told about this pattern among the prisons there. What is remarkable about this particular film is that it is not antagonistic against Americans in any way. The movie follows a family who lost a son in Iraq, the son's father had served in the Gulf war. They live in Flint, MI, MM's home town. The woman reads her son's letters, first thanking her for sending the bible, candy, etc, later telling her he's in Iraq for no reason, "He (Bush) has us here for no reason, I am so furious mama". There are footages of Bush prior to making his speech re: 911 attacks, and discussion re: his continuing to read to the children in the classroom an additional 7 minutes after learning about the first attack on America. Also some discussion on America giving money to Al Queda (we gave funds to Afganistan who allegedly passed this down to terrorists in Al Queda). Anyway, this is said to be unlike any of his previous films. very supportive of soldiars and mentioned in the interview is that the more republicans debunk the film, the better it will do with the public. I was unable to listen to the entire hour (grocery shopping) but caught most of it.
