Pat Dollard - The message is "the coolest, f**king most badass and most noble thing you can be today is a combat Marine. Period.”

In 2004, having made his name as Steven Soderbergh’s agent, Pat Dollard was the stereotypical Hollywood operator: coked-up, Armani-sheathed, separated from his fourth wife, and rapidly self-destructing. But when he hit bottom, Dollard didn’t go back to rehab; he went to Iraq, embedded with the Marines, and filmed a pro-war documentary... Young Americans

...Dollard was once a “doctrinaire liberal” who could even boast of close ties to Robert Kennedy Jr., but now speaks of his pro-war stance in the most militant terms: “This is a propaganda war, and if I can fight with a camera the same as a Marine with his rifle, I will.”

The message of my movie is simple: "If you’re a young person in America, the coolest, fucking most badass and most noble thing you can be today is a combat Marine. Period.”
