Re: Joanne Herring, Charlie Wilson, and the Stupid (none / 0)
From one of your comments:

Oh, and I forgot to say, I enjoyed the firm![sic]  ...  The film doesn't really take itself too seriously, and neither should you.

For once I agree with TBG :-)

I don't agree that this shouldn't be taken seriously - I think TV and cinema are key tools for building national narratives, and I'd be surprised if viewers don't assume the film is accurate history.



Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner - that I moved to Nice.
