HBO film cinematizes one NSA leaker’s FBI transcript in near real-time
When it comes to the U.S. intelligence community’s long and growing history with damaging leaks, director Tina Satter wants to give you a dose of reality straight from Reality.
The writer and director also told POLITICO in an interview that she didn’t initially pay attention to the news coverage of Winner until a New York magazine article led her to a POLITICO link. “There was something that said like ‘Read about the day Reality was visited at her home by the FBI’ … like, whoa, this is a weird story,” Satter remembers.
The 83-minute drama also unfolds in near-real time. Satter said she wanted to strip viewers of any prepossessions they had about Winner, the subject of exhaustive media coverage at the time. “I wanted her portrayed in all of the actual complicated myths of who she is and the action she took,” said Satter. “It’s up to people to take away their own feelings from that.”
The single intelligence assessment Winner disclosed did little to answer the all-important question of just how much impact the Russian influence campaign had on American voters. Billie Winner-Davis, Reality’s mom, told POLITICO that her daughter ‘regrets her actions’ for just that reason: “I hear her say that nothing changed, that it wasn’t worth it.”
