Why aren’t audiences drawn to movies about the war in Iraq? Kurt surveys the landscape and talks with the latest director to brave the war movie marketplace — Kimberly Peirce. Peirce’s new fiction film about Iraq,”Stop Loss,” was inspired by her brother, who came back from a tour in the Army and showed her the raw real-life videos combat soldiers were making. Produced by Eric Molinsky.
