Master Srgt. Jeffrey Sarver has filed a lawsuit against writer Mark Boal of the new movie The Hurt Locker. Sarver claims that his own life was the basis for the movie's main character and that he deserves compensation for the use of his life without permission. Since the movie is in the running to win one of this years ten best movie awards, Sarver is hoping to reap the benefits of its success.
The only proof (it seems) that Sarver has is that the events that take place are similar to some in his own life, and in the article it wasn't even mentioned that Boal and Sarver had ever met so is this a lawsuit that should be dismissed as false?
