(drama, history)
In the early 1950's, the threat of Communism created an air of paranoia in the United States and exploiting those fears was Senator 'Joseph McCarthy (II)' (qv) of Wisconsin. However, CBS reporter 'Edward R. Murrow (I)' (qv) and his producer 'Fred W. Friendly' (qv) decided to take a stand and challenge McCarthy and expose him for the fear monger he was. However, their actions took a great personal toll on both men, but they stood by their convictions and helped to bring down one of the most controversial senators in American history.

My hat to George Clooney. He does not have the easy road. His
Seriousness of purpose and there is no denying his talent as a filmmaker
concrete reality. This, his second feature, is not a low cost from one account
period in American history that left visible scars, but, as
Many have forgotten. History is repeating itself, but its characters seem
Diluido in this modern obsession with political correctness. David Strathairn
- best actor at the Venice Film Festival - is kept
Perfect as Edward R Murrow, television reminder that times have changed in
One way unrecognizable. The space for thinking real news network has
Been replaced by the circus atmosphere, 24-hour cable shows with strong
Bocas, sound effects and video graphics. The Inter-cutting between
Murrow / Strathairn and the real Senator McCarthy creates the perfect
Illusion of a frightening reality. The timing of the film could not be more perfect
. I hope we can fill in all the blanks and connect the dots on.
It is time to look back and think our past before it becomes our future.
Thank you, Clooney, thank you very much.
I had the "Edward R. Murrow Collection CBS for years and have
Disfrutado seeing the biography of Murrow, the complete
Milo Radulovich, McCarthy and Annie Lee Moss shows many times. I am sure
George Clooney should have these, and he used the actual footage
Extensamente in his excellent drama "Good Night and Good Luck." As previous
Poster said, to concentrate on what was actually presented, Clooney
It is capable of focusing on the ethical issues that are the very essence of
broadcasts, instead of the tragicomic personalities involved.
He wants us to see that the same problems are in our lives today (Clooney
has had its own battles with potential as a modern McCarthy
Bill O'Reilly), but he's not going to force the issue. He is doing exactly
Murrow and Friendly did with the broadcast McCarthy: using the
Register to tell the real story.

A minor, but significant, ornaments, most
an impressive cast of actors who can tell us more with a glance that an entire
Speech. The road is David Straithairn as Murrow. Except
have a greater voice than the original, which has its man
cold. I would pick Frank Langella as William Paley, presented here
As a man with ideals, but that is rooted in the realities of business,
The kind of person who has to make decisions as idealists
Murrow not want or need to be addressed. Then there is Ray Wise as
vulnerable, Don Hollenbeck, who was one of the co-creators of "Is there
", a programme of this film looks like something. He is liquidated
"There" when in fact do not want to be.

What really increases the exposure is the black and white picture,
(In fact, according to the notes, "The film was shot on color film
a set of grayscale, color corrected later in the post "- whatever that means
). Not only enhance the drama, (photographers from the magazine,
In the days when there was a choice, he said that "in a black and white drama, the emotion
Color"), but the tremendous resolution seems to bring
Each groove and poor in the face of every person, allowing the viewer
Look at their souls.
