Good Night, And, Good Luck (HD-DVD)
Good Night, And, Good Luck takes place during the early days of
broadcast journalism in 1950's America. It chronicles the real-life
conflict between television newsman Edward R. Murrow and Senator
Joseph McCarthy and the House Un-American Activities Committee.
With a desire to report the facts and enlighten the public, Murrow,
and his dedicated staff - headed by his producer Fred Friendly and
Joe Wershba in the CBS newsroom - defy corporate and sponsorship
pressures to examine the lies and scaremongering tactics
perpetrated by McCarthy during his communist 'witch-hunts'. A very
public feud develops when the Senator responds by accusing the
anchor of being a communist. In this climate of fear and reprisal,
the CBS crew carries on and their tenacity will prove historic and
monumental.
Audio Commentary with George Clooney and Grant Heslov;, Director
Commentary, Original Theatrical Trailer, HD-15.
