LIVE FROM BAGHDAD(2002)
I'm not a fan of war based movies! Even with that being
the bases for this movie, this is quite a compelling
watch! Michael Keaton does wonderful in this movie
and the rest of the cast is great!!! Very much worth
a watch or two, or three or more!! A
From IMDb.com:
Picking up three Emmys from 10 nominations, and being
nominated for several Golden Globes as well as many
more award wins and nominations, this film shows a
realistic and memorable performance of the CNN crew
in Baghdad during Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
I was very interested in what they did as I was providing
support to the B-52 crews as they prepared during Desert
Shield, and then I had to go back to the States and watch
desert Storm on TV. It's not like I hadn't seen Desert
Storm before, only they called it Reforger every time
we did it in practice.
Michael Keaton and Helna Bonham Carter were fantastic
as the leads, and they got incredible support from Lili
Taylor (Rudy), Paul Guilfoyle (CSI), and many, many
more. - lastliberal
