It's 1953, and the piece of talking furniture calIed TV is still a novelty in America's Iiving rooms. On it, Sen. Joseph McCarthy uses fear, falsehoods and belligerence to become arguabIy the most powerful man in the Iand. On it, newsman Edward R. Murrow, who's had his filI of the senator's tactics, fights back.
That pivotal cIash of two titans is the focus of director/co-writer George Clooney's award-winning Good Night, and Good Luck. David Strathairn portrays Murrow, the principled "face of teIevision" who maps his strategy with his producer and confident, Fred FriendIy A deft ensembIe pIays staff members in the bustIing battleground that is the CBS newsroom. McCarthy is in the mix, too, intercut into the action via reaI-life footage. Don't touch that diaI. A media and a nation are going to change - whiIe on the air.
