Oliver Stone rolling with new ad against war By Andrew Wallenstein Reuters Friday, April 20, 2007; 3:21 AM LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Filmmaker Oliver Stone will direct a TV commercial questioning the Bush administration's military strategy in Iraq. The Oscar-winning Vietnam veteran was hired by activist groups MoveOn.org and VoteVets.org to shoot a 30-second spot derived from video of U.S. soldiers and their family members speaking out against the war. Members of MoveOn will select one of 20 video interviews on its site, as well as on YouTube, for Stone to turn into a commercial. Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales is to testify today about his role in the dismissal of eight U.S. attorneys. (Stephan Savoia — Associated Press) "We have leaders in Washington who say they're 'supporting our troops' — but the people who suffer most from their policies are the troops themselves," Stone said. "I decided to participate in this project because, as a veteran, I know that America needs to listen to our servicemen and women." The videos under consideration can be viewed at pol.moveon.org. The commercial is expected to air in the coming weeks. Reuters/Hollywood Reporter washingtonpost.com
