Second Bradley Cooper news story of the day! His publicist just booked a massage tomorrow. He's just signed up to star in American Sniper for no less than Steven Spielberg - it's an adaptation of a book by a Navy SEAL about a sniper who shot the most people in Army history during Iraq, which led to insurgents putting a price on his head, yadda yadda - basically it's the mini-propaganda-movie "Nation's Pride" from Inglourious Basterds, but American.

oh shit - NAILED it.
Nation's Pride is actually stolen from that old Gary Cooper movie, Sergeant York, which is exactly the same story but American. He won an Oscar, but it's a MESS, which is part of why this is worrying me so much. Spielberg attempt at measured patriotic hero-worship was bad enough in Lincoln, but this sounds almost impossible to pull off without being shrieky.
