Well, FWIW, the Breitbart article says:
During the course of Aglialoros efforts to get the film into production, the project had definitely attracted a number of very reputable directors however, given Johanssons passion for the material and desire to execute a faithful cinematic vision of the book, the producers believe they found a director that most will believe is a diamond in the rough.And John Aglialoro is NO Hollywood Insider. He's the CEO of Cybex International, a long-time devotee of Ayn Rand, and a trustee of The Atlas Society.
I will check out the movie when it is available on netflix until then i will make no further comments..
This director/CEO is now awesome in my book, the Cybex 710A full body elliptical is my favorite piece of cardio equipment in the world.
