No Surge at the Box Office

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.
