Production Weekly reports that Brian De Palma will direct Redacted, a film based on the recent events surrounding the rape and murder of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl, and the killing of three of her family members by four U.S. soldiers.

The soldiers were sleep-deprived and living on energy drinks and sleeping pills in a situation where anyone outside the fence was considered the enemy.

The film's narrative will be told using a mixture of video from news broadcasts, documentary footage, trial coverage, YouTube posts and excerpts from one of the soldier's video blogs.

De Palma is scheduled to begin production early April.

This sounds and odd way to do it,at first i thought it was gonna be like Casualties of War but it seems more like a TV special than a movie given how he is gonna make it,i guess this means Capone Rising is on the backburner

This one will get mixed reactions. Basically making soldiers the bad guys.

I already made a thread about this movie. Anyway, it looks very good, the movie was very well received in international festivals and The Hollywood Reporter said it could be a candidate for the oscars.

This movie looks depressing. It's a true story. I'm almost glad I didn't hear about it.

Yeah, this is a little too real for me. I might check it out, not sure.
