Hollywood did try to make Snowden out to be somewhat of a hero making a movie about him, and who trusts Hollywood
Correct.
When I first heard about Snowden, I was outraged at the mass surveillance system that he released, and I (like many) admired him as a person of great courage.
It never occurred to me that the CIA and Deep State could be this devious and outrageous. But that seems to be their MO.
