First Lady Michelle Obama urged Hollywood to give a more accurate portrayal of veterans and defended the Oscar-nominated "American Sniper," which has received criticism for its depiction of war.Mrs. Obama said that the movie “reflects those wrenching stories that I've heard — the complex journeys that our men and women in uniform endure. The complicated moral decisions they are tasked with every day. The stresses of balancing love of family with a love of country. And the challenges of transitioning back home to their next mission in life.” She urged those gathered to portray veterans in a way that reflects the complexities of their lives, rather than in ways that are “caricatures,” whether they are shown as downtrodden or as simply saintly.
