Viewing Notes

Another film I caught up was Clooney’s masterful Good Night and Good Luck (2005). I enjoyed this film highlighting this particular period in time and the tension of those times but I forced myself on this one. I need to stop doing that.

One of these days I’ll have to watch again to appreciate all the subtleties. The look of this film is beautiful. And some great worth by David Strathairn.
