Read MoreI lived through this era and was refreshed by the amount of detail/original footage Mr. Clooney dug up. Some may not imagine this atmosphere of terror and fright existed. It did. The film touches only a fragment of time but it's exceptionally well done and on a very small budget.
This is a brave film as was CBS. Hats off to them all. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I watch 3-5 movies per week and have for years and have walked out of one movie in 20 years and turned off, maybe, three DVDs...this is one of them. The sad thing, it was only an hour long.

I don't believe it was slanted, as others have stated, because actual footage from Murrow's show was used. Very interesting. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes

I think the people that are giving it 4 and 5 star reviews are the same people that when you ask them what radio station they listen to-they say "NPR". They actually listen to Top 40, but want to appear intellectual. Close this ReviewWAS THIS REVIEW HELPFUL? Yes
