A Zimbabwean government official charges the CIA created the Hollywood movie The Interpreter to discredit President Robert Mugabe.
The Sydney Pollack-directed film starring Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn recently came out on DVD.
Zimbabwe's Acting Information Minister Chen Chimutengwende said the movie -- which stars Kidman as United Nations interpreter who overhears a plot to kill an African leader -- proves Zimbabwe's enemies do not rest, the BBC reported Monday.
The film talks about an African president going to the United Nations and our president is going to the (United Nations) next week, so the connection is so obvious, Chimutengwende said. It is part of a CIA-sponsored fight ... but we will defeat them and we will defeat neo-colonialism. We have defeated a powerful enemy before which was colonialism.
