omg if only....i wish this happened 5 FUCKING YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!!
* assassination may not be exactly as hoped.
This is the dramatic moment when President George Bush is gunned down by a sniper after a public address at a hotel, in a gripping new docudrama soon to be aired on TV.
Set around October 2007, President Bush is assassinated as he leaves the Sheraton Hotel in Chicago.
Death of a President, shot in the style of a retrospective documentary, looks at the effect the assassination of Bush has on America in light of its 'War on Terror'.
The 90 minutes feature explores who could have planned the murder, with a Syrian-born man wrongly put in the frame.
Peter Dale, head of More4, which is due to air the film on October 9, said the drama was a "thought-provoking critique" of contemporary US society.
He said: "It's an extraordinarily gripping and powerful piece of work, a drama constructed like a documentary that looks back at the assassination of George Bush as the starting point for a very gripping detective story.
"It's a pointed political examination of what the War on Terror did to the American body politic.
"I'm sure that there will be people who will be upset by it but when you watch it you realise what a sophisticated piece of work it is.
"It's not sensationalist, or simplistic but a very thought-provoking, powerful drama. I hope people will see that the intention behind it is good."
The film will premier at the Toronto Film Festival in September and was written and directed by Gabriel Range.

It sounds interesting, but if it really is going to be specifically about Bush being assassinated I think it is in poor taste. The point could be made just as easily with a fictional Bush-like president being assassinated during the War on Terror.
But it's ABOUT the current 'War on Terror' (god i hate that stupid label).
Would you make a fictional president getting shot in Dallas for the Kennedy affair?

No, because that was an actual historical event. The assassination of President Bush is not.
... to date.

Fuck, i thought this was real!
And sadly, i was only going to say 'it was only a matter of time'.
I'd pay to see this movie. Too bad if it happened, Cheney would be in charge, could actually be WORSE.
Cheney's already in charge, Bush is just a sockpuppet.
About this movie, in some ways it could be seen as distasteful because Bush (whether we admit it or not) is still a living president, but at the same time the 'citizen whose civil rights have been messed with' in me thinks this will be a godsend even though it ain't real.![]()
I really don't like Bush - never have, but i find this slightly wrong considering he is a living person who supposedly has friends and family who do like him. If it was a historical event it would be ok, but doing a movie about a real living person being assassinated is kinda weird. Be interesting to see the outcome of this movie - whether or not it inspires someone to really kill him.
