You Decide About Arafat: “The Faces of Arafat,” a documentary airing on PBS’ “Frontline” series Tuesday night, is not intended to be “a film to tell you Arafat thinks this and the Israeli government thinks that. The Israeli government thinks Arafat is a terrorist. Everybody knows that,” says producer Marie Colvin. Rather, it is intended to show viewers what the 60-year-old Palestinian leader is like. “There’s a good chunk of the film where we just follow him around and show you his routine. . . . You see him and hear him talking, and you can decide whether he’s believeable or not.”
