Redacted is based on a horrific true story that took place during current Iraq war. Brian talks to Elvis about how his direction of this film was influenced by the Internet, his belief that people have reacted strongly to the film due to being insulated by the media and government as to what is really going on in Iraq, winning this year's Silver Lion in Venice and what the Rotten Tomatoes website has to say about his movies.
