The Dark in "Zero Dark Thirty."

When the movie ZERO DARK THIRTY came out, I read that it justified torture and claimed that CIA torture had helped us find Bin Laden.  Susan and I decided not to buy tickets to see a propagandistic distortion of reality. I don't go to movies that muck up history (if I am aware of the problem). 

People have different opinions about a movie, but you can't reasonably have a different opinion about where the support for writing and producing ZERO came from. Last December the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence released a report on all this. Support for the writing and production of ZERO DARK THIRTY came in secret from the CIA.
