Zero Dark Thirty is the 2012 thriller that focuses on the decade-long American manhunt to capture or kill Osama Bin Laden. Directed by Kathryn Bigelow (Point Break, The Hurt Locker), the film encountered controversy in regards to whether the filmmakers were given classified information about details of the Bin Laden operation. The film was originally scheduled to be released in October 2012, but due to a controversy arising from the date's proximity to the American presidential elections, the U.S. release date was pushed back to December 19, 2012.
