Good Night, and Good Luck.

+Loved the documentary style, black and white texture of the film.
+Marvellous acting, equally good editing and very well directed by Clooney (the first attempt Confessions of a Dangerous Mind was thumbs down for me)
+ David Strathairn as Ed Murrow is perfect, absolutely fantastic in his dialogues, diction, oration all just perfect. The dialogues in the movie are worth keeping your ears open.
++Overall message of the movie is moral, intellectual and dignified. The immense power of information and the media which delivers them, the bold responsibilities of the people incharge of these and their courage to deliver the truth without fear of loosing corporate funding and more importantly of our duty to demand more than what media bullies and feeds into us.
Inspiring :)

-This is more of my short coming than of the movie, I think some knowledge of the events related to the movie would help to appreciate it better.

Recommended when you are in for some serious thought provoking mood.
