Film - Good Night, and Good Luck


Good Night, and Good Luck is a thoughtful film about the moral integrity of tv news journalism during the McCarthy communist witch hunt era of the early 1950s. I know very little about this period and was shocked at McCarthy's blatant abuse of power and the culture of fear he created.

All credit to George Clooney, who went out of his way to get this little gem made.
