Stylishly directed by George Clooney and with a fantastic lead performance by David Strathairn, this stirring film dramatizes the 1954 clash between revered CBS journalist Edward R. Murrow (Strathairn) and notorious anti-Communist crusader Senator Joseph McCarthy—who only appears in actual archival footage in the film.
