1. Saw this today in the Theater before "Lord of War".

This movie will have the MSM insiders' heads hanging in shame.

4. When real journalism was around and something to be admired.
maybe it will open their god damn eyes. Edit. Actually I think their eyes are wide open but they're pussies who are afraid of losing access to wh staff so won't speakk the god damn truth. Shameful, shameful pussy ass girleymen. And that's an insult to girls like me everywhere.

6. Oct. 7.
Wow! I had to watch the trailer twice. It looks good and I hope the payoff is there.
Clooney wrote and directed it.
It's about time Hollywood made another black & white film and what a great subject.

21. "Good night, and good luck" was Edward R. Murrow's sign-off
I loved his Person-to-Person show where he visited famous people in their homes, while he sat in a darkened studio and smoked while interviewing them.

23. Here's a blurb about the NY Film Festival on the film from
www.gothamist.com

http://www.gothamist.com/archives/2005/09/22/weekly_movie_guide.php

The New York Film Festival cometh: The biggest event for film lovers in NYC this week, however, is undoubtedly the Film Society of Lincoln Center's presentation of the 43rd annual New York Film Festival. This year's lineup is chock full of excellent selections, and Gothamist intends to help guide you with some pretty comprehensive coverage as the festival proceeds. For now, things kick-off tomorrow night with Good Luck, and Good Night, a remarkable film co-written and directed by George Clooney depicting the showdown between CBS News great Edward R. Murrow and communist witch-hunt propagator Senator Joe McCarthy. This is a phenomenal and eerily timely film. Both screenings tomorrow are sold out, but there will be stand-by lines if you want to try getting in. (The film opens in theaters on Oct. 7.) Stand-by is how you might have to see many of the titles in this year's program due to all the sell-outs, but take a chance on some of the lesser known foreign works, and you'll never know what you luck upon. Check the festival web site for information on which shows still have tickets available.
