I Me Mine

So I just saw this: Brad Pitt wants to make a film about the Chilean miners' ordeal. The heartwarming gimmick? The miners (may) be given acting roles. Because after all, reliving what must have been a horrific ordeal for the sake of an hour and a half of titillating film goers is definitely top of their priorities.

I can almost imagine the film critics' write ups... "Despite being a moderately enjoyable romp through some of Chile's lesser known industrial shafts, Luis Urzúa's performance in Mine Hard lacks the emotional intensity and raw believability that we saw in earlier roles such as Nine O'Clock News Report."


Wow.
