Live from Baghdad

(2002)Directed by Mick Jackson108 minDrama, War, TV Movie
“No story is worth dying for. But this was the story of a lifetime.”

Robert Wiener (Michael Keaton), a CNN producer, brings a small crew of reporters into Baghdad to cover the Gulf War. Mick Jackson, working from Wiener's own 1992 book, follows them with Ingrid Formanek (Helena Bonham Carter) and Mark Biello (Joshua Leonard) as they cover a story that keeps closing in on them. The film is built from the crowded hotel and the tense rooms of the Iraqi capital.
