I avoided it, since it was Clooney directed and it has a political overtone, so I assume they just bash the sh*t out of Joe McCarthy and make them look like heroes for challenging him. sh*t like that which never brings out the point there was legitimately reasons for McCarthy to go about things the way he did. |

I know nothing about the movie but I can guess. It somehow must have something to do with Edward R. Murrow and from Cano’s post the McCarthy witch hunt. I know Murrow tried to take on McCarthy. Might be worth seeing to see how accurate it really is. :rolleyes: Since it’s a Clooney *rhymes with Looney” movie it’s probably more fiction than fact as it advances Clooney’s political views. Clooney’s problem is he was born 20 years too late. He would have looked good in the Kremlin. |

great film, that was very well done. It was pretty historically accuarate and had a good political message that is still relevant today. |

McCarthy was a piece of sh*t, plain and simple. I thought the movie was good, but not great. It skipped too much information. I was also shocked that is was only 93 minutes long. |

If you accuse hundreds or thousands of something you will certainly turn up some guilty parties. But McCarthly needlessly ruined many people's lives. |

Nothing has ever been proven. Besides, if you watch the movie he accused people like Janitors and such. It was a witch hunt, he was trying to find something that wasn't there, or at the very least was not there is great numbers. |
