There is a movie out called, "War Tapes".

It is a very, very good movie about the war in Iraq, and although it is 4 years old (at the time of the filming) it is a very good presentation on what it is like in Iraq, and for the soldiers over here.

I would say the best part of the movie is the end when the returning soldiers give their opinions on the war. My favorite part is when Sgt.Pink says something to the effect of, "Why are we even in Iraq? We better get that oil right?!"

I would say I have to agree with the things Sgt. Pink says the most about why we are there and what we should do now...

No the movie is purely an insight on the experiences and hardships for the American soldier and their families.

No Iraqis are interviewed, but they are taped and often a topic of discussion.

And I do not know who made it.

sounds really interesting, especially to get to hear things from the perspective of the people who are actually in the war, the soldiers and such. Is it from an American perspective solely or are Iraqi people interviewed as well? Do you know who made it?
