Among the people who asked about them was Bradley Cooper, thanks to Jason, who’d championed Chris and the book. Cooper was already a huge star, one who had a reputation for taking big risks and trying a variety of roles (including one in the TV series Alias the connection I promised earlier). None of that was important to Chris. If there was a movie, he wanted the actor who portrayed him to be a true American. He couldn’t stand actors who would make unpatriotic statements against the war and then turn around and do war films. He’d told Jim he didn’t want a hypocrite playing him. I think he would have chosen not to let a movie be done rather than agree to let people proceed with it whom he didn’t consider patriotic. And so for Chris, the most impressive thing about Bradley Cooper was not his acting ability or the enormous research he put into his roles, but the work he’d done helping veterans. He was a supporter of Got Your 6, an organization that helps veterans reintegrate into family life and their communities. He had also done some USO tours. I couldn’t imagine a better match. Still, Chris didn’t just say okay. He talked to Bradley before deciding to let him option the book and his life rights. I remember Chris coming out of his home office after the final conversation. He was smiling; Bradley had a great sense of humor, which was probably the first thing they bonded over. “How’d it go?” I asked. “Went good. I told him, ‘My only concern with you, Bradley--I might have to tie you up with a rope and pull you behind my truck to knock some of the pretty off you.” Bradley laughed. Still, he did just about everything short of that to prepare for the movie. He grew a beard, studied photos and videos, and worked out like a madman, getting himself into the proper shape to play a SEAL in the movie.

Da quando è troppo tardi? Da quale momento è troppo tardi? Dal primo giorno che l'ho vista, da sei mesi, due anni, cinque anni? Se ne può uscire? Com'è possibile ritrovarsi a diciotto anni per strada, senza niente senza nessuno? Siamo cose così piccole, infinitamente piccole, che il mondo continua a girare, infinitamente grande, e se ne frega di sapere dove dormiamo? [...] Me ne sto di fronte a lei con il cuore a pezzi e senza voce, non ho risposte, sono qui, paralizzata, mentre basterebbe prenderla per mano e dirle vieni da me. [...] Me ne frego altamente che siano più mondi nello stesso mondo e che a ognuno tocchi restare nel proprio. Non voglio che il mio mondo sia un sottoinsieme A che non intersechi in alcun modo gli altri (B, C o D), che il mio mondo sia una patata impermeabile tracciata alla lavagna, un insieme vuoto. Preferirei essere altrove, seguire una retta che porti in un posto dove i mondi comunichino fra loro e si sovrappongano, dove i contorni siano permeabili, dove la vita scorra lineare, senza interruzioni, dove le cose non si fermino brutalmente, senza motivo, dove i momenti importanti siano consegnati insieme alle istruzioni per l'uso (livello di rischio, alimentazione elettrica o a batterie, autonomia prevista) e agli optional indispensabili (airbag, navigatore, ABS). A volte mi sembra che qualcosa manchi dentro di me, che ci sia un filo invertito, un pezzo difettoso, un errore di fabbricazione, non qualcosa in più, come si potrebbe credere, ma qualcosa in meno.
