Review of Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media (1992) by Danny B — 23 Apr 2008
If one was to point out that this documentary isn't interesting enough to stimulate one's interest, then one is too far removed from the message of this film.
Though, if you argue that the importance of this film is Chomsky or his view, then you may also have failed to recognize the moral of this narrative.
The medium is to be ignored, and the message to be analyzed based on the information which a smart mind can isolate from the narratives which twist information.
This is one instance where I will so begrudgingly agree with those filthy nihilistic Post-Modernists, in agreeing that this documentary, like all media (sigh...), has it's own biased narrative. This flick however does acknowledge its narrative and that, to me, is the point to be taken from this film.
