Spotlight

We watched All The President's Men the other night & it was great - very timely! Worth having Wikipedia to hand to fill in the blanks though, unless your 1970's American political trivia extends to stuff like the Canuck Letter etc.

Great and thanks . Had thought about All the Presidents Men but wondered if it was too dated.

Cry freedom

Along the same vain, The Big Short, about the American housing price crash. Based on a true story. I'll see if I can think of some more too.

The Killing Fields
(Gory and a very hars watch, and Cambodia may be so extreme he struggles to connect it with censorship in more moderate countries).
