Ive been a superintendent for 30 some years at many different park Service Units across the United States. The only time ive ever had a break is when i was on maternity leave. I have retired from doing this one thing that i loved. Now, im going to be able to have the time to explore something different. Its like another chapter. We know how the hunt for Osama Bin Laden ended, with a dramatic raid by elite s. E. A. L. Team six but just how bin laden was found and killed remain largely a mystery. Now, its the subject of a new movie by the director and screenwriter behind the oscarwinning movie the hurt locker. Abcs senior Foreign Correspondent Martha Raddatz covered this story from the start and shared her insights with the filmmakers and tonight, she brings us this exclusive look at zero dark thirty. That is him . Could be. Reporter it was the greatest manhunt of all time. The stealthy night time raid by the elite s. E. A. L. Team six, the secret bin laden compound in pakistan. You think you note story but hold on to your seat. Now, there is so much more. Zero dark thirty the riveting new film by director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter mark boal brings you the hunt for bin laden like its never been seen before, combining meticulous detail of a firstrate investigative reporter. It was thrill to see what the people were like. Reporter with the dramatic touch of oscarwinning director bigelow. It was based on firsthand accounts, it felt very vivid and immediate. Reporter they bea gan the project six years ago with a very different ending until the United States conducted an operation that killed Osama Bin Laden. I picked up the phone and started calling sources and seeing what they knew and taking reer iffals and knocking on doors. There there was huge controversy and an investigation was begun about you receiving classified material. I certain dli a lly did a lo homework. I never asked for classified material and to my knowledge i never received any. Reporter at the center of the drama was a young female cia officer played by jessica chastain, the woman they called maya, rerelentlessly tracked leads that went straight to bin laden. Bin laden is there. And youre going to kill him for me. I realized this odyssey was this woman, with tenacity and courage, i was excited to take it on. I didnt want to use you with your velcro and gear, i wanted to drop a bomb. Reporter those words were indeed real based on interviews with the young cia officer, some of the dialogue is drama tiezed, some of the decades difficult na nair nairty narrative condensed. How did she feel about the movie . A lot of people i spoke to were in an unusual position, they were proud of what they had done but had more or less resigned themselves to the fact that what they had done they could not talk about publicly but the movie allows them tuk in a way that is a bit freer because movies can change the way people look. Reporter bigelow was making final tweaks with her sound designers the day we met. What we were try doing here was create a kind of sonic environment that kept the outcome of the evening in question. Reporter because they dont know how it will end. They dont know. Reporter the evening in question the climax of the film, the raid that killed bin laden. That had to be a challenge because the world thinks they know how this ends. But they dont know how it happened. They dont know what was the choreography of the assault itself, where did they land . Where did they crash . Who did they kill first . Reporter the assault on the compou compound, like the rest of the film is as accurate as possible. Using in part abc news video shot at the actual scene a full scale version of the compound built in jordan where they filmed for close to four weeks. The floor the tile, carpet mark said you took that from from your footage. Reporter where fr the abc news video. Yes. Reporter they recreated the stealth helicopters that swept over the border into pakistan using real black hawks with Computer Generated graphics replicating the stealthy skin. Actors told of terrifying twists that their real live counterparts faced. Youre in the elements, wind, sand, sound in the rotor wash and you cant see anything. You know, you imagine what it would be like to land in this place. Reporter and bigelow takes you there like nobody else can. You feel this raid. Hear it. Even though you think you know how it ends, there is more to this story. Youre at the center of something that is so epic and that doesnt come along very often. We were both aware of the fact we probably wont have another story like this. I cant imagine. I think its a story of the lifetime. Reporter it may be but for many of the real heroes of this movie the secret work they do continues to this day. For nightline, im Martha Raddatz in los angeles.
