Syriana faced financial difficulty, and some cause for celebration at the premiere to be due. The situation arising in the Gulf republics as well as parts of Russia and Siberia was central in the operating budget of many of the people involved in the ins and outs of the story on which the movie is based. To give some idea of the response this had in Washington the director investigated tax, laundering, and stock corruption throughout the headlong years for the research of the film, following the major success of his first film, Traffic.
        But in the end not only did the investigations and discoveries of the film, the work of the main character Robert Barnes, the real life Robert Baer, bring about a redesign and activist cultural notice, but news captions followed with frequent releases of the film. The demise of Mid-East politics brought about the collision of forces mitigated throughout the film - the career of the hero and heroine of Washington/oil politics as viewed in the homes of disenfranchised workers in the tumultuous gears of large corporations.
      Decidedly, the star-studded event lacked the further consideration of critics and all the way up to chief of staff in great number, just as had been the case in the movie. The angle and approach that is stunning, visually as well as logically, is devised - to enter the story sidewise, to attract certain claims, wherein a series of arguments leads through maze of research and hopefully for the viewer, discovery, of these latest commandments.
      It was no small showing when actors, to the fact, showed an open roster with many Persian, Arabic, Farsi people and languages. A start in the movie, when Baer returns from a holding cell, there is slight mention of "real" Washington politics until tables are turned, and the pallid discovery of possibly a new infrastructure is devised.
