I always thought that this should be a compulsory film for me, and I plan to spend two hours or more to study hard, but the film is only 93 minutes long. The interspersed JAZZ singing divides the film into several paragraphs of a song, ranging from depression to joy. From the singer's singing, the direction of the next paragraph can be clearly
inferred .

It would be unwise to watch this film with very little knowledge of McCarthyism, the subject matter is political and reflects a specific period in a specific country, it is easy for us foreigners to get dizzy, like AVIATOR, I can remember There is only the scene where Leonardo, who is no longer handsome,
urinates .
The relationship between press freedom and press control is elaborated by Ed R. Monod and his boss. It's good that Uncle George uses a similar documentary, and it's black and white to put this bottle of wine, so that his producer tendencies are hidden in Mono frowning, staring up right from the
corner , using angular The mouth uttered a series of American tones with metallic echoes.

Even if you are not a journalist, you can somehow feel that the relationship between news controllers and press freedom has never been relaxed. It is like a protracted multi-party wrestling match. It seems that only a few controllers can be seen, but in the absence of In the intermittent events, everyone is changing roles. Is it the practitioner, the controller, or the fact itself who is being
controlled ?

    I watched it for Clooney. The exported film is as mature and masculine as himself, but it is a big boring film. The photography is very good, but I think photography is the basic equipment for black and white films. Personal preference. Politics, news, media, black and white, men, smoking, it is estimated that women will not be interested.

    It is also an elegant retro style, with full interior and restrained shots; the touching blues and jazz are very stingy but all used on the blade; the connection between historical materials and the film is very accurate; the style is restrained but there is a faint flash of cold light , David Strathairn's performance successfully portrays a great journalist who strictly adheres to moral and legal bottom lines; Clooney's directing skills are quite good, but the handling of the ending is a bit abrupt.

Good Night, and Good Luck. quotes

  • Colonel Anderson: Wouldn't you guess that the people who have seen the contents of that envelope might have a better idea of what makes someone a danger to his country, or do you think it should just be you, sir, who decides?

    Fred Friendly: Who? Who? Who are these people, sir? Who are the people? Are they elected? Are they appointed? Is it you?

    Edward R. Murrow: To those who say people wouldn't look; they wouldn't be interested; they're too complacent, indifferent and insulated, I can only reply: There is, in one reporter's opinion, considerable evidence against that contention. But even if they are right, what have they got to lose? Because if they are right, and this instrument is good for nothing but to entertain, amuse and insulate, then the tube is flickering now and we will soon see that the whole struggle is lost. This instrument can teach, it can illuminate; yes, and it can even inspire. But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise it is merely wires and lights in a box. Good night, and good luck.
