Revelations in CITIZENFOUR film even cause Snowden to exclaim, “No F-ng Way!”

Several big bombshells were revealed tonight during the debut of Laura Poitras’ documentary on Edward Snowden, CITIZENFOUR. Edward Snowden’s girlfriend has moved to live with him in Russia and towards the end of the film–a huge revelation–something is revealed to Snowden which causes him to exclaim, “No f@#$ing way!”

In the key scene, journalist Glenn Greenwald visits Snowden at a hotel room in Moscow. Fearing they are being taped, Greenwald communicates with Snowden via pen and paper.

While some of the exchanges are blurred for the camera, it becomes clear that Greenwald wants to convey that another government whistleblower — higher in rank than Snowden — has come forward.

The revelation clearly shocks Snowden, whose mouth drops open when he reads the details of the informant’s leak. – Hollywood Reporter

UPDATE: Edward Snowden featured in a LIVE interview presented by The New Yorker:

CITIZENFOUR also reveals the fact that 1.2 million Americans are currently on a government watch-list–including the filmmaker, herself!

Something that caught everyone by surprise is the fact that Snowden’s girlfriend, Lindsay Mills, has been living with him since July. The film shows them cooking dinner together.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that the film received a rousing standing ovation. No word yet on how wide the distribution will be of this film in theaters. I wouldn’t hold my breath.
