The Fog of War is a fascinating movie. Visually, it's very captivating, but without being totally inherently biased in the way a Michael Moore film would be. Hearing it come from the mouth of the man who lived through and participated in most of warring during the twentieth century is just incredible.

[EDIT: Oh, and Phillip Glass was the perfect choice for composer for the film. All the historical file footage matched to his industrial minimalist musical stylings was just great to watch. It was also amazing to see the contrast between the aged Robert Strange McNamara and the young man who appeared constantly in the historical footage. I kind of want to watch it again...]

I am so pro Errol Morris (the film maker), that I could weep. Check out his other films, specifically Fast, Cheap, & Out of Control.

Amen to that! Errol Morris is the man!

...and definately watch Mr. Death... and Gates of Heaven (which sadly isn't out on DVD).
