EMBEDDED/LIVE
directed by Tim Robbins

2004 97 MINS Color

Tim Robbins launches a broadside of satirical ammo in this filmed version of his angry, rude and very timely political stage parody. Taking aim at the American military, administration neo-con idealists and their submissive publicists in the corporate media, Robbins and the ensemble cast of The Actors' Gang present the seemingly insane saga of the invasion of Gomorrah, an oil-rich country ruled by the Butcher of Babylon. Likened to punk-rock theater by Robbins, Embedded is guaranteed to amuse, provoke, disturb and entertain. Stereo

1. Taped it last night
It was the second time I got to see it. My only concern is that you have to be pretty much a political junkie (like us) in order to understand who Leo Strauss is and who the masked people are and what they're talking about.
