Bin Laden Hunter
Soon to be a major new Hollywood movie starring Nicolas Cage.
"Bin Laden Hunter" is the hilarious, unbelievable and ultimately inspiring true story of Gary Brooks Faulkner, a fifty something American who wanted to put his sketchy past behind him and do what the US military and CIA had been unable to do at the time: capture or kill Osama Bin Laden.
Faulkner and those close to him tell the story of his life and his series of daring (or crazy) solo missions to Pakistan to try and locate Bin Laden. "Bin Laden Hunter" is a glimpse into a certain segment of America, a precarious underclass where a sense of abandonment by elites hasn't diminished allegiance to God and Country. It's the kind of story that only seems to come from the American West, a place that every once in a while still produces an iconoclast like Faulkner - a man willing to take matters into his own hands to get the job done - no matter what society says.
