Exactly...and that's why the Manuel Noriega story must be told...my pick to play the lead...Tommy Chong! (I understand they tried to use psych ops to get him to surrender, but made the mistake of playing that song about "We're going to lay around the shanty Mama- and get a good buzz on..." )
There was already a movie about Manuel Noriega and he was played by Bob Hoskins. But I see your point.
