The film also promises to jolt the award season with a dose of real-world politics, as happened in 2012, when Steven Spielberg\u2019s <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/gst\/movies\/titlelist.html?v_idlist=334056;427211&amp;inline=nyt_ttl\">\u201cLincoln,\u201d<\/a> Kathryn Bigelow\u2019s <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/movie\/464549\/Zero-Dark-Thirty-Movie-\/overview\">\u201cZero Dark Thirty\u201d<\/a> and Ben Affleck\u2019s <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/movie\/450330\/Argo-Movie-\/overview\">\u201cArgo,\u201d<\/a> the year\u2019s best picture, converged on Washington, with screenings, receptions and a Congressional uproar over the portrayal of torture by Americans in Ms. Bigelow\u2019s film, which was about the hunting down of Osama bin Laden. &#8211; The role that Mr. Weinstein, whose Radius-TWC unit is backing the film (and distributed last year\u2019s Oscar-winning documentary <a title=\"A.O Scott\u2019s review\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2013\/06\/14\/movies\/20-feet-from-stardom-explores-world-of-backup-singers.html?_r=0\">\u201cTwenty Feet From Stardom\u201d<\/a>), will play in promoting \u201cCitizenfour\u201d remains unclear. In the past, he has not shied from using his association with Mr. Obama to promote issues-oriented movies. These include the biopic <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/movie\/439830\/Mandela-Long-Walk-to-Freedom-Movie-\/overview\">\u201cMandela: Long Walk to Freedom,\u201d<\/a> which had a <a title=\"An article\" href=\"http:\/\/insidemovies.ew.com\/2013\/11\/21\/obama-white-house-mandela-12-years-a-slave\/\">much-publicized White House screening<\/a> last year, and the documentary <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/gst\/movies\/titlelist.html?v_idlist=86239;236776;246690;465292&amp;inline=nyt_ttl\">\u201cBully,\u201d<\/a> which was screened for Mr. Obama in 2012, just minutes after he announced his support for a pair of anti-bullying bills. &#8211; Also in 2012, Mr. Weinstein arranged a high-profile Washington showing of his \u201cSEAL Team Six: The Raid on Osama bin Laden,\u201d <a title=\"An article\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2012\/10\/24\/arts\/television\/obama-is-prominent-in-seal-team-six-weinstein-film.html?pagewanted=all\">raising complaints <\/a>that its flattering portrayal of Mr. Obama \u2014 who was edited into the film before its election-week premiere \u2014 amounted to a campaign stunt. &#8211; On Tuesday, it was the Radius-TWC co-presidents, Jason Janego and Tom Quinn, and not Mr. Weinstein, who played host as Ms. Poitras introduced \u201cCitizenfour\u201d to film buffs and some potential Oscar voters at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. &#8211; \u201cThe film is certainly about the danger of N.S.A. surveillance, but it\u2019s also really about courage,\u201d Ms. Poitras said. (The movie\u2019s title comes from Mr. Snowden\u2019s self-designated code name when he began communicating with Ms. Poitras.) &#8211; In a later phone interview, Mr. Quinn and Mr. Janego said they had exercised considerable autonomy in acquiring rights to \u201cCitizenfour\u201d after Mr. Quinn visited Ms. Poitras to discuss the unfinished film at her home in Berlin. Both stressed that Mr. Weinstein and his brother, Bob, co-chairmen of the parent company, were not a driving force in the decision to distribute the film, which is to open on Friday in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Washington. &#8211; \u201cWe did not see the actual film until very late in the process,\u201d Mr. Quinn added. &#8211;\u00a0 Promotional screenings and talks are likely among the tech crowd in San Francisco and among political types in Washington, but scheduling has been hampered by that late delivery, he said. &#8211; The potential power in \u201cCitizenfour\u201d lies less in its revelations \u2014 though its ending points to the existence of another, as yet unidentified, government-surveillance whistle-blower \u2014 than in its intimacy and attempt to make narrative sense of the disclosures by Mr. Snowden, a former N.S.A. contractor. &#8211; At the film\u2019s core are startlingly close encounters with Mr. Snowden, shot during eight days in a Hong Kong hotel room in 2013, as he began revealing secrets of the N.S.A. to the journalists Glenn Greenwald and Ewen MacAskill, and wrestled with the implications of his leaks. At one point, in nearly silent pantomime, he reshapes his beard and restyles his hair, preparing to slip from the hotel and eventually seek refuge in Russia. &#8211; The footage of Mr. Snowden is framed against shots of Mr. Obama and members of his administration, first denying the existence of domestic surveillance, then promising a review of programs, and finally insisting on Mr. Snowden\u2019s prosecution. &#8211; In the Oscar race for best documentary, \u201cCitizenfour\u201d is likely to find itself up against some less volatile documentaries. Among those are <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/gst\/movies\/titlelist.html?v_idlist=40652;477228&amp;inline=nyt_ttl\">\u201cRed Army,\u201d<\/a>about Soviet hockey stars; \u201cLife Itself,\u201d about the film critic Roger Ebert; and <a title=\"About it\" href=\"http:\/\/www.filmlinc.com\/nyff2014\/films\/tales-of-the-grim-sleeper\">\u201cTales of the Grim Sleeper,\u201d<\/a> about the predations of a serial killer in South Los Angeles. &#8211; But \u201cCitizenfour\u201d recalls a different political dynamic, in 2004, when Mr. Weinstein introduced Michael Moore\u2019s anti-Bush <a class=\"meta-objTitle\" href=\"http:\/\/movies.nytimes.com\/movie\/305974\/Fahrenheit-9-11-Movie-\/overview\">\u201cFahrenheit 9\/11\u201d<\/a> at the Beverly Hills headquarters of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences with a personal tribute to Mr. Moore. The two received a roaring ovation from like-minded Academy members. &#8211; But \u201cFahrenheit 9\/11\u201d won no Oscars. It was ruled out of the race when Mr. Moore chose to air it on pay-per-view television shortly before the presidential election. &#8211; This time around, though, some key voices are quieter. &#8211;\u00a0 Mr. Plepler, whose top documentary executive, Sheila Nevins, is an executive producer of \u201cCitizenfour,\u201d has not yet seen the movie, an HBO spokesman said. Mr. Skoll, through a Participant Media spokeswoman, declined to comment when asked whether he had concerns about the film\u2019s view of Mr. Obama. In an email, referring to Mr. Quinn and Mr. Janego, of Radius-TWC, Mr. Weinstein said: \u201cThis is Tom and Jason\u2019s show. They have autonomy, and it\u2019s all their call.\u201d &#8211; Mr. Janego, on Wednesday, asserted that Ms. Poitras\u2019s cin\u00e9ma v\u00e9rit\u00e9 approach leaves a comfort zone for both those who support Mr. Snowden and those who find his actions offensive. \u201cYou\u2019re left to make up your own mind,\u201d he said. -&#8221;\u00a0 &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;djo&#8212;&#8212;&#8212; <em><span style=\"color: #000080;\">}<br \/>\n<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>=====<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Lead Articles:<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_396\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/aerendel.ca\/aarchives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/2014-oct-18-RussianShipDisableOffBC.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-396\" class=\"size-full wp-image-396\" src=\"http:\/\/aerendel.ca\/aarchives\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/2014-oct-18-RussianShipDisableOffBC.jpg\" alt=\"Disabled Russian Cargo ship.\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-396\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Fuel-laden Russian cargo ship under tow off B.C. coast. -cbc-<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Tug tows incapacitated Russian cargo ship to port in Prince Rupert<\/span>\u00a0 { * The first attempt to tow it anywhere failed when the rope snapped.

They\u00a0suggest\u00a0that Canadians will inevitably have access to American content streamed online when\u00a0online streaming\u00a0becomes the norm and more and more people abandon their cable providers. &#8211; It&#8217;s already happening south of the border. Last week, HBO\u00a0announced\u00a0that it will allow Americans to\u00a0stream its programming\u00a0online next year without having to\u00a0subscribe\u00a0to the cable channel. &#8211;\u00a0 While HBO won&#8217;t be streaming its service into Canada, at least not yet, the experts say the pressure from the public and from some content providers to allow more streamed foreign content is bound to grow. And that could\u00a0mean\u00a0that Bell and Rogers\u00a0may eventually be relegated to essentially providing\u00a0the &#8220;pipe&#8221;\u00a0\u2014\u00a0\u00a0or the\u00a0actual cables,\u00a0connecting to households\u00a0that\u00a0facilitate\u00a0internet or wireless service. &#8211; &#8220;[Rogers] controls the pipe as\u00a0does Bell.
