Directed by Errol Morris, rated PG-13, 107 minutes
The Fog of War is a fascinating and revealing documentary about former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and the many lessons he's learned about life and war. McNamara, even if you despise him, is a great subject because of his amazing life experiences and his candidness about them, however director Errol Morris keeps his thoughts from turning into ramblings. Philip Glass provides a wonderful score that perfectly accents McNamara's words, and Morris keeps the visuals from being all talking heads, with fitting footage. The Fog of War is a compelling documentary that takes an interesting look at a tumultuous time. You'll like it if: You like movies about history, Mr. Death: Fred A. Leuchter Jr. or Thirteen Days.
