The Fog of War
Former Secretary of Defence, under President Kennedy and President Johnson, Robert S. McNamara was one of the most controversial and influential political figures of the 20th century. Now – for the first time ever – he sits down one on one with award-winning director Errol Morris (The Thin Blue Line) to offer a candid and intimate journey through some of the most seminal events in contemporary American history. As the leader of the world’s most powerful military force during his nation’s most volatile period in recent years, McNamara offers new and often surprising insights into the bombing of Tokyo, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and the effects of the Vietnam War. Featuring newly-released Oval Office recorded conversations with Presidents John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson, The Fog of War, received critical acclaim as well as the 2003 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature for its up-close and personal insider perspective.
