There have been so many over the decades, do you have a favorite or a list of favorites? Just something fun to lighten the freaking mood some

All the Kings Men and Citizen Kane......hard to believe they were both made in the 1940's.

I was honestly getting ready to post V for Vendetta. That movie is just amazing. The part after he saves Evee is crazy, I would never be able to say that speech.

It was freaking beautiful!

What about the latest Rambo? What ole Rambo does at the end with that .50cal could be considered our current foreign policy.

All The Presidents Men

and

Blood Diamonds

Full Metal Jacket is good too. But very disturbing.

hey, also, post them if you got them. There are a lot of these older political flixs online. This might be a fun way we can all take a break from yelling at eachother and watch and talk about politics in film.
