Scranton, Deborah

Deborah Scranton (New Hampshire) discusses "virtual embedding" in her direction of the documentaries The War Tapes and Bad Voodoo s War, filmed in part by soldiers in Iraq. 

In all my interviews and in all my appearances, inevitably somebody would ask what my position on the war was. And I said I would never answer it in the context of Deborah Scranton, director of The War Tapes. If we were having dinner and we were having a conversation, of course I m happy to have a conversation. But for me to go on the record and to say what my views were, it would diminish everything that the guys and I had done in making that film. The whole point was to try to share what their experiences were, and to amplify their voices.
