Sometimes his approach to "Watchmen" ran counter to studio thinking: He pushed for a screenplay that kept the story's Cold War backdrop rather than pursuing an inherited script's war-on-terror update. When it was determined that the movie's 160-minute running time couldn't accommodate... (Boston Globe)
