Good Night, and Good Luck

Finally saw George Clooney’s movie about Edward Murrrow’s efforts to bring down Senator Joseph McCarthy. No car chases. No gunfire. No explosions. No nudity. Just a bunch of guys talking and smoking and looking terrified. In black and white. There were five of us in the theater. Would love to see the movie again, but next time in the White House screening room with W, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove and…maybe John Ashcroft. One of those movies that nobody ever expected to make a lot of money. Just needed to be made.
