"Munich"

Munich




1972


At 4:30AM on September 5, 1972, five Arab terrorists wearing track suits climbed the six and 1/2 foot fence surrounding the Olympic Village in Munich, Germany. Once inside, they were met by three others who had gained entrance with credentials. Within 24 hours, 11 Israelis, five terrorists, and a German policeman were dead.






Following the Munich massacre, Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir gave instructions for Israeli agents to hunt down and kill those behind it. She told the Knesset on September 12, 1972:



We have no choice but to strike at the terrorist organizations wherever we can reach them. That is our obligation to ourselves and to peace. We shall fullfil that obligation undauntedly.





Spielberg's untitled Munich Olympics project, began shooting in Europe this July.

The Munich pic, a DreamWorks and Universal co-production, is set to bow Dec. 23.

The pic, scripted by Tony Kushner, follows the aftermath of the 1972 Munich Olympics, where members of the Israeli team were held hostage and slain by Palestinian extremists. The nature of Rush's role is being held close to the vest.

Spielberg, Kathleen Kennedy, Barry Mendel and Colin Wilson are producing.



-Eric Bana and Ciarán Hinds





-Steven Spielberg most probably telling Eric Bana were he wants him to glance for the shot with Ciarán Hinds.





-Actor Daniel Craig readying for a shot





-Steadicam in operation around Daniel Craig and ?





-Bana and Hinds in dialogue

funny thing about it is that while he was filming 'The hunt for the terrorists' , Scotland Yard was hunting terrorists as well.

The message Spielberg is trying to project is that ans eye for an eye is not the way to solve matters.

Spielberg has done a lot of great stuff. As a director he does have an awesome force. I will have no objections seeing this movie. The movie itself does looking very interesting to say the least.

From the trailer, I think that After Bana honors his contracted assasinations, he is presented with more and begins to feel even worse about it.

I heard that Ben Kingsley was also going to be in it, but they thaought that the production would be targeted by terrorists so they postponed it and created a scheduling conflict for Mr. Kingsley, so he had to leave the project.

Kingsley's absence had nothing to do with terrorists targeting the production.

He was commited elsewhere and that explained his absense. The film was meant to be shot in 2003, but the script did not please the production, so Spielberg called in Tony Kushner to re-write it. Its Kushner's first script for a feature film.

As the production was moved to 2004, Kingsley had to be estranged cause of another schedule.

I had heard it was because of the possibility of attacks, but it's more then likely that I'm wrong. I had forgotten that the script had been re-written so that probably is the cause of the scheduling conflict.

I loved Munich, saw it twice. Because it was a S. Spielberg movie I knew it was gonna be good. And it was.

Besides being a great movie, the gunshot wounds and explosives were among the most realistic looking effects I've ever seen in any film.

I never ever flinch in a theatre but this film made me do it a couple of times. Spielberg rawks.
