Thanks for the heads up. I noticed that ICH took the doc down from its site, presumably after a request/threat from Curtis or the BBC.

If you haven't yet, you might want to check out Peter Bergen's review from The Nation, which I thought contextualized the film well.

Yeah, I'm skeptical whether we will ever see a US release so I downloaded copies so I won't lose it again--thanks for the review... very good!
