NEW YORK, Dec. 7 (UPI) -- Director Angelina Jolie says it was very important that her film Unbroken be rated PG-13 as opposed to R, so most people could see it and learn about its hero Louie Zamperini's incredible survival story.
Based on the best-selling book by Laura Hillenbrand, Unbroken follows Zamperini as he went from Olympic runner to World War II airman to tortured prisoner of war to free man again. He died in July at the age of 97.
