Warfare was made for a real-life Navy SEAL who lost his memory

Alex Garland and Ray Mendoza’s harrowing new film “Warfare” takes a realistic look at a platoon of Navy SEALs on a mission gone wrong in Iraq in 2006. It’s based on Ray's experiences as a real-life Navy SEAL, and it’s dedicated to his platoon member, Elliott Miller, who lost a leg and suffered a traumatic brain injury during the mission. Ray set out to make the film to help Elliott remember what they went through that day. In this conversation with Tom Power, Ray and the Canadian actor who plays him, D’Pharaoh Woon-A-Tai, talk about “Warfare” and why it was important to tell this story as true to life as possible.
