Good Night, and Good Luck

Good Night, and Good Luck recounts the story of CBS journalist Edward R Morrow and his personal crusade against Senator Joseph McCarthy’s anti-Communist witch hunt. The story discusses how important it is to make a stand against injustice, even though you may be accused in the process, as Morrow was. He was successful in showing that guilt by association is not necessarily guilt a message that resonates today. It is often the case that films about the past often say more about the time they are made. April 2006
