About this product

Product Information

Documentarian Errol Morris directs THE FOG OF WAR, a captivating look at Robert S. McNamara, who served as the Secretary of Defense during the Vietnam War and the Cuban Missile Crisis. The movie does not exclusively focus on this part of McNamara's career, however, and instead gives a broad overview of the man he was, his multitude of roles--a Harvard Business School graduate, a Colonel in the Air Force during WWII, president of Ford Motor Company--and his opinions on a variety of historical topics. Inspired by two books written by McNamara--IN RETROSPECT (1995) and WILSON'S GHOST (2001)--Morris gives McNamara a forum to talk about the decisions he made and the influence he had during his career. At the age of 85, McNamara has gained necessary perspective to do just that. Sharp as a tack, loaded with charisma, and generally fascinating, McNamara easily carries the film with his revealing interviews. Meanwhile, Morris's use of archival footage--along with maps and other effective visual aids--add context to McNamara's commentary, and Philip Glass's ominous, pulsing score gives the film's important subject matter the gravity it deserves.

    One of the best documentaries I have ever seen.

    If you don't have a clearer understanding about how geo-politics and manipulation of the truth works after watching this, perhaps you are wise to consider yourself brain washed or brain dead. The Japanese city bombing analogy with U.S. corresponding cities is the hidden gem. A few things to keep in mind when viewing this: 1) Just when you think you have it sorted out, you'll be wrong. 2) There is no head of a snake to chop off, no hope, no change, no dream candidate...no free champagne in some VIP room... the powers that be prey on human weakness and no one is going to change that....never have, never will. 3) the cream does not rise to the top. It is - the scum. Filthy rotten - drug importing, weapons dealing, slave running SCUM.

    Great Documentary of Secretary McNamara

    I bought this movie because it was highly rated, and it didn't disappoint. It's a great insight into McNamara and his disposition concerning wartime decisions during his 7 year tenure as Secretary of Defense. And the movie came very well packaged and protected.
