Good night and good luck

In my Internet Studies lecture for today, we watched a film entitled 'Good night and good luck'. The film was in black and white, which evokes the thoughts of the past. It starred many famous actors such as George Clooney. The film was very media based and it allowed us to view a scenario based on what people who work directly with the media deal with. The film is very centred around a character named, Edward. R Murrow. It deals greatly with communist hunts. There are also two secretly married people that are apart of the staff in this film. With regards to the music, the dress code and the black and white filming we are very much aware that the film is telling us a story of the past. It was not the type of film that I would usually watch, but it was interesting. I got to see the process of what people who are involved in the media go through before they actually provide us with news.
