About a month ago I was flipping through Redbox movies when I stumbled upon this great flick that I’d recommend checking out. At the time I watched this, my political science class was discussing specific rights the press enjoys, one of which comes into controversy and creates the premise of this movie. Should a journalist’s source be allowed immunity regardless of circumstances? Between the three exceptions dictated by the Supreme Court and the Constitution reading “Congress shall make no law… or abridge freedom of the press,” I’m still left scratching my head. This smart, dramatic thriller will get your blood pumping and provoke some thought. Best of all, it’s based on true events and if nothing else, you get to watch a great cast of A-class celebrities including Alan Alda from MASH.
