Looks like quite a good film. I've always been a fan of George Clooney's and this is his "labour of love" so to speak.

The film at the TOP of my must-see list though, is Munich. The critics loved it and the subject material (conflict between Isrealis and Palestinians) is more relevant now than ever.

iI went to see this film today and gotta say I wasnt dissapointed but I would advice anyone who is not into politics,PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stay at home this film is about politics and news/journalism ..
Now its opening was this sweet voice of Dianne Reeves giving us one of Blue note dinner jazz tune like...its was cool black and white film
quite frankly I wasnt there during the time of Senator Mc Carthy but real alot about him and his witch hunt and i still wonder why did they bring down one of their own?
Neverless it tell us how journalist should be, 99%the film is filmed in ..CBS STUDIOS
Ohhh Dianne Reeves is brilliant with her jazz singing..damn she gained weight of recently
i would give this film 10/10

Maybe that government, of by and for the people you loathe so much works better than your myopic hatred of it can comprehend.
Here is testimony that supposely arch conservative Ronald Reagan gave to the House Committee on Un-American Activites:
"I believe that, as Thomas Jefferson put it, if all the American people know all of the facts they will never make a mistake. Whether the (Communist) party should be outlawed, that is a matter for the government to decide. As a citizen, I would hesitate to see any political party outlawed on the basis of its political ideology. However, if it is proven that an organization is an agent of foreign power, or in any way not a legitimate political party -- and I think the government is capable of proving that -- then that is another matter. I happen to be very proud of the industry in which I work; I happen to be very proud of the way in which we conducted the fight. I do not believe the communists have ever at any time been able to use the motion picture screen as a sounding board for their philosophy or ideology.
CHAIRMAN: There is one thing that you said that interested me very much. That was the quotation from Jefferson. That is why this committee was created by the House of Representatives: to acquaint the American people with the facts. Once the American people are acquainted with the facts there is no question but what the American people will do the kind of job that they want done: that is, to make America just as pure as we can possibly make it. We want to thank you very much for coming here today.
REAGAN: Sir, I detest, I abhour their philosophy, but I detest more than that their tactics, which are those of the fifth column, and are dishonest, but at the same time I never as a citizen want to see our country become urged, by either fear or resentment of this group, that we ever compromise with any of our democratic principles through that fear or resentment. I still think that democracy can do it. "

Saw the film months ago, and anticiapated your comments when you expressed interest.
