Review of Good Night, and Good Luck. (2005) by Billys. — 09 Nov 2005
The critics are right. Good Night and Good Luck is a socially relavent, timely lesson on the power of media and the role it plays in politics, both historically and currently. The technical credits are all top-notch and Oscar worthy, as is the briiiant performance of David Strathairn.
The use of newsreel footage of Senator McCarthy, however, gave the whole movie too much of a documentary feel and left you wondering what an actor like Pacino or DeNiro would have done with such a choice role as Strathairh did with Murrow.
The one thing the critics have not mentioned though, and maybe its me, but this is one hellavu boring movie.
