awesome movie!

Rating: 9/10 (23 December 2015)

a wonderfully told, well shot and acted movie. Gets to the inner workings of doing real journalism in a way that is super rare these days, save for pro publica, the intercept and the sometimes good NY Times reporting (which is completely countered by their horrible foreign reporting, particularly on the middle east). To continue, the director takes the viewer through a very thorough procedural approach towards what happened, who was involved, the manner in which the reporting needed to be carried out and it was involving although there was no real "action" on screen, the implications were enormous and very well conveyed. The editing, in particular, stood out. The ensemble acting was great although Marc Ruffalo, who I love!, was a little too much into character, a bit too much of the moak, Live Schriber and Keaton were great, they really kept it battened down. Go see it, love it.
