They might do a good job with it.

How in the world do you get "Enemy at the Gates with Americans" from reading the article?

Easy! Take one true story, stretch it all over the place and bring in one or more a mawkish sub plots that doesn't add anything at all and there you have a history of a great sniper.

"Enemy at the Gates" did this with a Russian. What we don't need is someone to do it with an American.

The problem is that the snipers role is very much their own (Well OK, add a Spotter). To make a movie out of the indvidual experience you have to add in a lot of back story or its just a couple of hours of taking people's heads off!

"Enemy at the Gates" didn't do a brilliant job of it – I'd like to see this one do it better.
