>"A man can live a good life, be honorable, give to charity, but in the end, the number of people who come to his funeral is generally dependent on the weather." A good film loosely inspired by the journalist Judith Miller. Always good to see films that remind me that journalism used to have integrity and guts... something we need these days. Kate Beckinsale, Matt Dillon and Alan Alda killed it. David Schwimmer just looks like a sad, lost puppy dog as usual.
Pretty good movie. The end was a nice twist, but it leaves you wondering why this whole court case was necessary after all. All she had to say was "my informant [spoiler]doesn't work for the CIA/FBI",[/spoiler] therefore no national security issue. Case dead. Everyone played their part well, including David Schwimmer (I think he's a total tosser and waste of space...). 8/10
Great movie. Unexpected twist at the end. Loved it!
imagine an investigative newspaper reporter having a child in an informal cover as a source, that's the apex
