In the early 1950's, the threat of Communism created an air of paranoia in the United States and exploiting those fears was Senator Joseph McCarthy of Wisconsin. However, CBS reporter 'Edward R. Murrow (I)' and his producer Fred W. Friendly decided to take a stand and challenge McCarthy and expose him for the fear monger he was. However, their actions took a great personal toll on both men, but they stood by their convictions and helped to bring down one of the most controversial senators in American history.
Good Night, and Good Luck couldn't be more unlikely, more unfashionable -- or more compelling. Everything about it -- its look, its style, even its sound - stands in stark opposition to the trends of the moment. Yet by sticking to events that are half a century old, it tells a story whose implications for today are inescapable.
An examination of the stand CBS newsman Edward R. Murrow took in 1954 against Sen. Joseph McCarthy, Good Night is a marvel of classic restraint in a hopped-up film culture. Shot in elegant black and white with impeccable ensemble acting and moody jazz riffs for a soundtrack, it wouldn't exist except for the lonely passion of directo...
Good strong political cinema
You've probably heard a lot of good things about this and it is very good indeed. If you've read any reviews you'll know how the film works and the style of the film making is good and fits the film very well. Where the film's strength lies is in its relevance to the current political climate and, to me, that's what I found to be excellent about it. Having the same kind of tension and anticipation as similar journalistic films, the attention isn't really directed towards the ethics of the journalists as much, as more towards the politicians, suggesting that it was the right thing to do, rather than pushing them forward as great American heroes, which it could have bee...
Edward R. Murrow walks tall staring down Sen. Joe McCarthy in Good Night, and Good Luck, which remains our good fortune. The only things missing from making this showdown worthy of a Western is Murrow's sheriff's badge, a dusty street and maybe a spittoon for McCarthy's infamous invectives.
Flip, you say? Well, this viable awards contender isn't. So even-keeled that it allows McCarthy to play himself, using kinescopes from the era, Luck gleans extra depth from being the best movie ever about the in-bred tension between newsfolk and their advertisers. As such, George Clooney's second directorial outing couldn't be more topical, though the events it chronicles ...

This true story reflects upon the sad state of television today, not much has changed, in fact; it's worse.. Great movie, great cast, great soundtrack. Loved the black and white format and no hollywoodian "frou-frou". If you're into action films, mundane comedies; this is not for you, this movie requires an open mind that can see "the big picture".
what a powerful movie..well done george cloony for bringing this to the screen..the acting was surperb and it was made better being in black and white..10/10
