Oliver Stone's Bush film hit by leaked script

Washington, May 14 : Despite Oliver Stone's best efforts to keep the plot of his George Bush based flick a secret, the script dealing with the US President's stint in Whitehouse has been leaked.

Titled W, the shooting for the film started on 12 May (08) in Louisiana and it will finally hit the theatres October (08).

Stone went to all lengths and breadths for keeping the script under wraps that included the scripts being embargoed and watermarked for extra security.

Still one of the US daily, the New York Post reportedly managed to get a copy of the script and has published a few excerpts on Tuesday (13May08), reports Contactmusic.com.

The film, starring Josh Brolin, Ioan Gruffud and Thandie Newton, reportedly has taken a jive against the current resident of Whitehouse, mocking both George W. Bush and members of his administration.

The film has also poked fun at former president Bill Clinton and it was reported that in one scene he is referred to as a "lardass".

And to top it all, the leaked script has also made fun of Bush's relationship with his parents, his alleged incompetence, his Texan accent and, most controversially, his decision to go to war with Iraq in 2003.
