Stephen Farrell and Tim Arango accompanied Iraqis to a Baghdad screening of the Hollywood movie, “The Hurt Locker” in a literary society in central Baghdad. A video of some of their reactions is above, and Tim’s story in The New York Times is at ‘Iraqis Gather to Watch Hollywood’s Take on a War That Has Enveloped Their Lives’.

I saw the movie, bit too heroic and irrealistic to my liking.
But then again its an American movie so it should be heroic as usual.
