Review of Truth (2015) by Richardgonci — 17 Jan 2016
Do not fail to see the movie "Truth." In its way it is more important than the movie that eclipsed it, "Spotlight." I have not always loved Cate Blanchett's work, but she is luminous in this one as Mary Mapes.
And, Redford is a very credible Dan Rather. Breaks your heart, because there was no happy ending to this tale. Nor, has there been a good coda to the stories of either of these films. This film is not about George W.
Bush's service (or lack thereof) in the Texas Air National Guard. It is about the ongoing failure of American "journalism" to support its troops.
