My favorite political movies
Dirty Harry over at the Libertas blog (“a forum for conservative thought on film”) lists his top five political films: A Man for All Seasons, A Lion in Winter, All the President’s Men, The Manchurian Candidate, and All the King’s Men. An interesting list. Here’s my quickie list of ten, oh hell, eleven, in no particular order:
All the President’s Men
Z
Nixon
Secret Honor
JFK
Dr. Strangelove
Missing
Wag the Dog
Malcolm X
Reds
Two by Costa-Gavras and three, count 'em, three by Oliver Stone. OK, everybody — chime in.
