I can’t believe that I missed your point, I will have to do some research on this.

You would think so, but with Hollywood it’s all about bottom line .. maybe if it was about union troubles here…

Plus who would they cast…? Hollywood is also all about star-power and box office draw, and who would they be able to cast as Mansour ( or any of the others, for that matter) that would be able to make them enough money.

I understand that, but wouldn’t a story based on Mansour, or others, be able to show Muslim’s in a good light? Heck, it could even make the US look bad by showing our lack of attention to their plight. Win, win.

Hollywood (unless it’s the conservative indie fringe) rarely produces films that show Muslims in a bad light. films like “Munich” are fine. Films that show the U.S. in a bad light, are also fine… “Syriana”

Just the way it goes.
