Clint Eastwood's 2014 movie 'American Sniper' tells the tale of U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, the most lethal sniper in U.S. history. But is the Hollywood version of Kyle really a true portrait? While Kyle's supporters celebrate him as the 'All-American hero' depicted in the film, his critics argue that this popular portrayal of him sanitises him. In reality, he's a hate-filled killer brutalised by the effects of war. This episode explore the myths that have built around Kyle, revealing him to be a more controversial, fallible, and ultimately human figure than Hollywood would have us believe.

This film was first broadcast: 2016
