Highly recommend this trailer and film
We saw this movie in 2019. It is a great film.
I am not particularly fond of Clint Eastwood but I'd have to say it was the best film I've ever seen him make. Surprisingly it was co-produced by Leonardo DiCaprio. An unusual pair for sure.
The film is about the over reach of the FBI and how they set up security guard Richard Jewell to take the blame after the 1996 Olympic bombing in Atlanta.
The actor that plays the accused Richard Jewell did a stunning performance.
It's an important film as we witness the current stories about FBI-CIA-NSA malfeasance inside the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) fascistic actions, growing domestic surveillance, attacks on free speech and assembly, and the escalating attacks on student protests over Palestine.
All of the oligarchic actions need an enemy to justify this repression. Many of our governments have long been in the hands of the remnant Nazi cabal that worked hard after WW2 to keep themselves in power.
Alan Dulles ran the CIA from 1953-1961. As a so-called public servant Dulles was most committed to supporting global corporate domination - aka the 'global mafia'.
The prevailing ideology in Washington: Pick an enemy like Russia and ride it as far as you can before the horse throws the rider off. Imagine the money made during those times of supreme tension. The Cold War was a boom for the MIC. They need another one now if they hope to hang onto their pirate power.
(I once read that George H. W. Bush's family had been pirates - made sense to me.)
Dulles ensured that Wall Street interests always prevailed inside the deep layers of the US government.
Fear (domestic and foreign) must be generated in order to control the quivering masses.
This is a good 'Mr. Big's clampdown warning'.
