This is strictly to qualify for awards the wide release, which should include Spokane, won’t be until Jan. Irwin Winkler’s soldiers-returning- from-Iraq movie will begin a limited run on Friday at three theaters in New York and L.A. Jackson, Jessica Biel and 50 Cent were all in attendance at this gala event. De-Lovely director Irwin Winkler helms this potentially controversial MGM project.“Home of the Brave” had its world premiere on Tuesday – not in Spokane, where it was filmed, but in Beverly Hills. Jessica Biel, Christina Ricci and Eva Mendez play the women who love these damaged men. Rapper 50 Cent aka Curtis Johnson and relative unknown Brian Presley play the other two soldiers. The other two soldiers from his unit are having similar problems leaving the horrors of war behind.

He is not the same man who left a few months before and she worries that he is having a mental breakdown. When the soldier returns, his wife is shocked to discover how much emotional damage the conflict has inflicted upon Jackson’s character. Jackson, fresh from the disappointment of Snakes on a Plane, portrays a doctor returning from extended duty in the middle east. Jackson frontlines the cast of this movie about three soldiers who return from Iraq and attempt to return to a “normal existence”. Instead, the focus is the re-integration process where a soldier leaves a place of tremendous peril and comes home to reflect upon what he has experienced. Home of the Brave is not a movie about what happens to Americans while they are in Iraq.

Thousands of American soldiers have been directed to go to foreign soil and protect the peace there. Movie of the Day for Monday, October 23, 2006ĭuring this election year, one of the hotbed topics is the situation in Iraq.
