Good Night and Good Luck trailer

[grady]

This is the new film by George Clooney, and it looks good. It gets automatic bonus points for being shot in black and white too. The trailer reminds me of The Insider, one of my favorite films. It should be interesting to see how Clooney's sophmore effort at director turns out. I wasn't the biggest fan of Confessions of a Dangerous Mind but did like parts of it. Perhaps it's time to revisit that film. I know there were people that just assumed Steven Soderbergh was leaning over his shoulder the whole film giving him tips and cues on where to point the camera and how to shoot the film but I don't think this was case. Looking at this trailer further reinforces this point.

Plot: Broadcast journalist Edward R. Murrow (Strathairn) looks to bring down Senator Joseph McCarthy.

Amusing Tidbit from the IMBD: Director/star George Clooney had said they opted to use archive footage of Joseph McCarthy instead of using an actor to portray the senator. Clooney had said that when the movie had undergone test screenings, audience members felt that the McCarthy character was overacting a bit, not realizing that it was the actual McCarthy through archive footage.
