One thought on “The Hollywood Version

  1. That certainly is an interesting perspective on one of President Obama’s early media successes; making that sniper shot all the way from D.C. However, there’s too much potential self-interest on both sides, at least for me, to give the story sufficient credibility. Like the spray of a skunk, “lawsuit” masks all but the hard, verifiable or already proven facts.

    Once sanctified by Tom Hanks, though, Captain Phillips will probably find his face on a coin, or better yet, on Oprah. I dislike Hanks for many reasons, but perhaps the strongest reason is his unexplained appearance with the Pythons in “A Concert for George.” Looked like he had a good time though. Could be that my objectivity is obscured by that.

    Hope the true story can be verified. Phillips’ alleged heroism was a good, positive story, so I’d hate to see it diminished unnecessarily.
