Live from Baghdad
Encyclopedia : L : LI : LIV : Live from Baghdad
Live from Baghdad is a television movie produced in 2002 by HBO. Directed by Mick Jackson and written by Robert Wiener (based on the book of the same title by Robert Wiener).
Michael Keaton stars as CNN on-location producer Robert Wiener in Baghdad, Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War. The movie focuses on the news media's (primarily CNN's) coverage of the war. Fundamentally an action/drama, the characters grapple with the ethics and implications of 24-hour journalism in the days leading up to and during the United States-led bombing of Baghdad.
Most of the film was shot in Morocco.
