The filmmaker and screenwriter Mark Boal Kathryn Bigelow responded Wednesday to charges that his film about the capture of Osama bin Laden as a strategy to boost the reelection campaign of President.
The New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd wrote on Sunday that the administration has given the filmmakers' access to presidential elections in favor. "As in Obamaland hoped, the film is to open Oct. 12, 2012 - perfectly timed to boost the home-stretch campaign, which has grown stronger," Dowd wrote. "The filmmakers have a high level of access to classified history of the administrative tasks, which is trying to throw more people in jail for leaking classified information the Bush administration."

"Our upcoming film project about a decade to find Bin Laden has been ongoing for many years, and joint efforts to integrate the three authorities, including President Clinton, Bush and Obama" in addition to the Department of Defense and CIA, they say. "This was an American triumph, both heroic and impartial," they said, its mission, "and there is no reason to believe that this film is a big win if you do."
