The creator of one of my favorite shows, 30 Days, just sold the rights to his latest movie Where in the world is Osama bin Laden?
Now I find it hard to believe that a pasty white guy from West Virginia and his camera toting crew found the world's most wanted man, but this is one shameless promotion that I'm curious about. We will probably all have to wait until the Sundance Film Festival to find out, as everyone who has seen the movie has signed a non-disclosure agreement, and the film was quickly snapped up by a prominent film studio for a cool $25 million. By the way, the studio only saw 15 minutes of the film before they paid all that money.
A few other blogs have made some good points though. If you found Osama, interviewed him, spent time putting together a film, and then sold it for $25 million to finance your future film-making, wouldn't it have been a smarter idea to just collect the reward?
