Reel Geezers- Political Films to Watch

I wish they were my grandparents!

I love these octos!

thanks this was great. More genre-recommendations would be much appreciated!!

Yeah, um Alec Guiness won that year for Bridge on the River Kwai, one of the best underacted performences of all time. Andy Griffith is really good in that film though.

Oh, best political film is JFK, as long as you take the whole film as fiction. it's like when Woody Allen is prolonging having sex with his wife in Annie Hall by ranting about all the possibilities of the JFK murders, but instead Oliver Stone just made entire picture about what he thought might of happened, not definitely.

I love the cynical way they view patriotism!!

"A Face in the Crowd" was great with Andy Griffith playing the GUITAR & being discovered by Patricia Neal's character.

No one ever mentions his movie after "No Time for Sergeants" which was "Onion Head".

You guys should review, "Milk," by Gus Van Sant.

I dont let my politics get in the way of art, maybe its because Im an independent, I dont subscribe to one party. If someone creates something beautiful and I dont agree with him politically I would never dismiss his/her work. Frank Capra, gave us few of the most memorable movies in film history:
It Happened One Night, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, You Cant Take It with You, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, Meet John Doe and Its a Wonderful Life.
