"A Mighty Heart"

I caught a great HBO documentary earlier this week entitled The Journalist and the Jihadi: The Murder of Daniel Pearl.

The documentary details not only the kidnapping and death of the Wall Street Journal reporter in 2002 but also his life up to that point and the life of his kidnapper, Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh.

Turned on the news this morning and heard that Angelina Jolie will be portraying Pearl's wife in A Mighty Heart , based on the book of the same name written by Mariane Pearl, which will be released in theaters this June.

Sounds like the reviews have been positive, I'm looking forward to seeing it.
