Congratulations... and Question to Andrew Niccol

Rating: 8/10 (27 January 2006)

Andrew,
you probably have heard of the success of your movie here in France (especially in Paris). The story is great, instructive (the lifestyle of an arms dealer..., but I agree, even if Saint Barth or "what a view" were looking sensationnal, Youri's destiny is not a Reference or an Example for the youth..
The massive impact on the french audience was also due to your last quotation presenting the members of the UN Security Council as the indirects responsible of the "chaos"..
My question to Andrew is simple :
Did the UN authorise in any way the broadcasting of the movie or did you check or received any official comment from them on the commercial relation between Taylor( André Baptiste) and Orlov ?
I'm asking you because I'm quoting your movie (as a reaction from the civil society)in the Introduction of my thesis dedicated to the Special Court for Sierra Leone (whose famous accused is Mr Taylor / Liberia - Sierra Leone,the civil war, diamonds trade, the RUF etc. )
Thanks in advance
