BIG PICTURE > RIPPED FROM THE HEADLINES UNITED 93 Release date: April 28, 2006 Based on events from: September 11, 2011 Paul Greengrass knows the subtlety needed to successfully dramatize recent events after helming United 93. Released less than five years after the 9/11 attacks, United 93 offers a real-time look at the events that transpired from the perspective of the passengers from the title flight and the air-traffic controllers monitoring the situation. The result is a harrowing, emotionally draining experience that owes its success to a production that eschews manipulating the viewers or interjecting any sort of political commentary. Audiences might not have been prepared to watch United 93 in its 2006 release; the film grossed $31.4 million during its theatrical run. Greengrass will come back with another film based on recent events with this month’s Captain Phillips. ZERO DARK THIRTY Release date: December 19, 2012 Based on events from: September 2001–May 2011 Originally, the focus of Kathryn Bigelow’s film was how Osama bin Laden managed to elude the United States for nearly a decade, but with his death that all changed. There was strong buzz surrounding Zero Dark Thirty from its inception, but boasts from producer and screenwriter about the film’s authenticity worked against the film’s awards campaign and public reception. The claims were needless, with Zero Dark Thirty being a work of fiction that uses a fair degree of dramatic license, and only served to shift focus away from the film as a whole into a debate about its depiction of torture. Zero Dark Thirty collected $95.7 million at the North American box office despite the controversy, but the film was overlooked in the major Oscar categories. 60 BoxOffice ® <strong>Pro</strong> The Business of Movies OCTOBER <strong>2013</strong>
