This is true. He mentioned it in an interview
There are two audio commentaries. The better of the two features director James Gartner and producer Jerry Bruckheimer. Bruckheimer has almost nothing to say, and I wondered if he was even in the room with Gartner. After introducing himself, it's another 20 minutes before he speaks again. For his part, Gartner is a better-than-average commentator, being more coherent than many. Long silences hint that he could have done a little more homework, perhaps. His comments range from the technical aspects of filmmaking (lighting and cameras), to his approach to the various actors (Derek Luke wanted more direction; Jon Voight came super-prepared), to which parts of the story were actually true (most of the important points). Also, it was refreshing to hear a Hollywood director casually mention that he's a Mormon -- no preaching, no complaining about Hollywood, just something he is interested in when he's not directing.
