3. Some actors do not know the full story of a film just their pieces
and are shocked with the final cut. Just saying :shrug:

5. The person he plays (John O'Neil) was, in real life, very critical of Bush

He quit his anti-terrorism job under Bush in protest.

I'll bet that the movie doesn't cover that.

He can't condemn this movie because his new job was in the World Trade Center. He was there when it was destroyed.

6. I'm just guessing here...
..but maybe because at any given time 90% of actors are unemployed and if he tokk this job he wouldn't be? (I can identify with that one. I work at right-wing wack-o station. I needed (and still need) the gig)and the check didn't bounce.

8. Because he probably believed the producers when they said
the script was based on the 9/11 Commission report. Maybe he didn't have time to vet everything in the script before having to let his agent know if he wanted the part. Cut him some slack. It's the producers and the writers to blame, here.

11. Well, the "production name" of the muckumentary was
"Untitled Historical Project" ... so he could have been duped ...
