Hollywood, the Pentagon and perceptions of mass murder
The Pentagon recognises the power of celluloid dreams and encourages Hollywood to create heroic myths; to rewrite history to suit its own strategy and as a recruiting tool to provide a steady flow of willing young patriots for its wars. This 47 minute video shows how the Pentagon shapes perceptions of mass murder, and features filmmakers Oliver Stone and Michael Moore, and Chris Hedges, former New York Times bureau chief.
