?Death of a President? shows Bush being gunned down after a speech?

LONDON - A British television network plans to broadcast a dramatic, documentary-style film about a fictional assassination of U.S. President George W. Bush, the network?s head said Thursday.

The program uses actors and digital manipulation of real footage to show a fictional account of Bush being gunned down after delivering a speech in Chicago, Peter Dale, the head of More4, told a news conference.

?Death of a President,? also scheduled to be shown at the Toronto Film Festival in September, focuses on all those linked to the pretend crime ? including nearby anti-war protesters, suspects, Secret Service guards and investigators, Dale said.

More4, which is the digital offshoot of Britain?s Channel 4 network, plans to show the program on Oct. 9.

The White House declined to comment on the network?s announcement, saying it would not dignify the program with a response.

?It?s an extraordinarily gripping and powerful piece of work, a drama constructed like a documentary that looks back at the assassination of George Bush as the starting point for a very gripping detective story,? Dale told reporters.

?It?s a pointed political examination of what the war on terror did to the American body politic,? he said.

Dale said he expected the film would upset some, but defended it as a sophisticated piece of work.

?It?s not sensationalist, or simplistic but a very thought-provoking, powerful drama,? he said. ?I hope people will see that the intention behind it is good.?

?Death of a President? is directed by Gabriel Range, whose 2003 TV movie ?The Day Britain Stopped? showed what might happen if the country?s transportation network ground to a halt.
