LOSING CONTROL -- 'Control Room' Exposes the Pitfalls of Modernization
Edited on Thu Jul-08-04 01:04 PM by HuckleB
I guess this movie is too much for GD. Has no one at DU seen this? I'm shocked that it's not being talked up, or has it and I missed it?

It's an incredible film that every American should see, IMHO. OK, not so humble, in this case, but nonetheless.

1. Yes, I've seen it
and have recommended it a couple of times. I love that movie - I think it's as important as F911.

3. Actually there have been several threads on this movie
Including two very active threads over the past two weeks, that (unfortunately) appear to be archived and not searchable right now.

But, Koko01 created one fairly long thread in GD and there was a lounge thread. Others probably too, that I recall.

try searching when advanced search comes up.

It was an incredible movie and I posted quite a bit about it (and what now has become of several "players," in Koko01's thread.

4. Muchas gracias.
I was gone all Spring and much of the past few weeks, but was wondering why I got no responses whenever I mentioned the movie. It's truly amazing. Powerful yet subtle, head on yet thoughtful. Anyway, I'm glad to know that some are talking about it, though I do wish it got more play, at least in places like DU. But I'm never satisfied, now, am I?

:)
