Good Night and Good Luck
OK, I live in a small town and Good Night and Good Luck opened today in Lakeland, Florida. In the interest of full disclosure I should say that I think Mr. Clooney is gorgeous, our Cary Grant if you will. So, I am biased.That being said this movie will make you long for a news anchor with a back bone. When Mr. Murrow says (I'm paraphrasing here) that you don't have to present both sides of a story when one is clearly wrong I gasped. Not a huge gasp, but a gasp none the less.
There a moments like that peppered throughout the movie. I saw the first showing with a very small audience but everyone applauded at the end.
Perhaps the Good Luck is for us that we will have a press that will hold our current politicians accountable.
