Errol Morris is one of the best and most challenging documentary filmmakers working today. He has created some of the most amazing portraits of the American experience, from "Vernon, Florida", to "Thin Blue Line", "Fast, Cheap and Out of Control", and "Mr. Death". The Fog of War looks at the career of Robert Macnamara, the man who was responsible for the US's East Asian policy from the dropping of the bomb in Japan in WWII, through the Cuban missile crisis and America's sinking in the Vietnamese quaqmire. Morris lets his subject talk about moral issues surrounding his public career, leading him ultimately to answer exactly those questions that interest those interested in contemporary American politics.
