Film Description
Three critically-acclaimed films based on true-stories. Comprises:
Good Night, And Good Luck (George Clooney, 2005)
Highly-acclaimed dramatisation of CBS broadcaster Edward R. Murrow's mission to bring down the tyrannical Senator Joe McCarthy, whose anti-communist fear-mongering remains one of America's most shameful eras. Strathairn is excellent as the solemn crusader, and Clooney's sparse direction and Robert Elswit's black and white photography perfectly capture the period.
Hamburger Hill (John Irvin, 1987)
On the 11th of May in 1969, troops of the U.S. 101st Airborne Division engaged the enemy at the base of Hill 937 in the Ashau Valley. Ten days and eleven bloody assaults later, the troops who fought there called it 'Hamburger Hill'. Based on a true story.
Pierrepoint (Adrian Shergold, 2005)
The true story of the rise of Britain's most prolific executioner, Albert Pierrepoint, and his struggle to lead a normal life. But what goes on in the head of an ordinary man whose job it is to kill? With an outstanding central performance from Timothy Spall.
