Good Night, and Good Luck

Last night, Victoria, Lou, Bryant and I went to see "Good Night, and Good Luck," a fascinating movie about how Edward R. Murrow, Fred Friendly and others at CBS television turned a bright, shining light on the "anti-communist" activities of Senator Eugene P. McCarthy. The movie is incredible and, in today's environment of "for us or against us," provides a sobering reminder that efforts to limit the freedoms and rights of people are not consistent with the American ideals such efforts are espoused to protect. It's easily one of the best movies I have ever seen.
