Today's edition of The Independent offers a profile of Marty Rathbun , a member of the Church of Scientology for 27 years, now considered a "heretic." As a high-ranking official, Rathbun worked with high-profile Scientologists like Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, and Greta Van Susteren. Since he left the Church, he has been hounded by damaging allegations and a weirdly persistent "documentary crew" known as the "SQUIRREL BUSTERS." In the video above, Rathbun asks the stranger at his door what he's doing. The reply: "I'm doing an investigation on you and your squirrel technology." A "squirrel" is a term used by Scientologists to describe members who have turned against the Church, as a letter sent to the Independent explains. It said Marty had been responsible for 'lies, obstruction of justice, and violent behaviour' within the Church and had been dismissed from an executive position in the organisation r...

Producers behind Tom Cruise's 2003 blockbuster The Last Samurai have won a legal battle against two screenwriter brothers who alleged their idea for the film was stolen. Writers Aaron and Matthew Benay filed suit in 2005, insisting a script they wrote in 2000, also called The Last Samurai, was used as a template for the hit Cruise movie. Film executives Marshall Herskovitz and Ed Zwick disputed the brothers' claims that they had sent a script to their production company Bedford Falls, and, after a seven-day jury trial in Los Angeles, they were vindicated of the accusations on Friday (06Apr12). Herskovitz tells The Hollywood Reporter, "Ed and I are extremely relieved. It's hard to live under a cloud of false accusations for so many years. The fact that the jury said we never even saw the script - justice has been done."
