Thoughts on "Good Night and Good Luck"
Good Night, And Good Luck was not at all what I was expecting. Being an Oscar nominee, I thought it was going to be really good and interesting, but it's not the kind of movie that explains events that may be unfamiliar to some people. Towards the end, I was finally getting the idea of the whole movie and then it just ended. To really understand it, I think I would have to watch it again or maybe even two more times- not something I want to do. Another thing I didn't like about it was that it was black and white. I know they were just trying to make it look older so that people could get the feel of it, but for me, black and white movies are too distracting and take away from actually watching the movie. Color would have been much better.
Anyone agree or disagree?

I some-what agree with you, I thought that the movie was going to be really interesting but it was a let down when I watched it. I think that the black and white film was a little distracting, but I thought that it fit with the movie. At the end I finally started piecing it together but it just ended really weirdly. I agree that this is a movie that you have to watch over but I thought it was interesting to watch.
