This film, directed by George Clooney, is completely in B&W and set during the Cold War, a period when America was paranoid about the spread of Communism and everyone smoked cigarettes.
It's a political film about the use of fear for political gain and how mass media is used to perpetuate it.
I guess nothing much has changed, which is why they made the film.
All up, an enjoyable and enlightening film... I had no idea that cigarette smoking was so prolific back then.
8/10
