Caught this one last night, Jeremy Renner, one of my favorite actors, plays the lead.

I thought it was brilliant, a true story and a real eye opener; it connects a lot of dots regarding the tidal wave flow of blow into this country in the 80's on Reagan's watch...................it all makes sense to me now.

The post script to the movie was very sad as well, stick around for the credits as you'll need to, it was infuriating.

My wife and I really enjoyed it as well. Very underrated.

He never worked as a reporter again, which is really sad..................the epilogue said they found him in his apartment; so was he divorced as well?

Really sad; and yes, don't cross the government.............

Finished watching this. Sad and frustrating. Great cast, well written. Considering what he got into and the people he was dealing with it's a wonder he got as far as he did. -- Al
