The Fog of War (DVD)

"The Fog of War" is the story of America as seen through the eyes of the former Secretary of Defense, Robert S. McNamara. One of the mostcontroversial and influential figures in world politics, he takes us on a insider’s journey through many of the seminal events of the 20th Century. As American forces occupy Iraq and the possibility of additional military conlficts loom large, The Fog of War is essential viewing for anyone who wants to understand how the American government justifies the use of military force. Combining extraordinary archival footage, recreations, newly declassified White House recordings, and an original score by the Oscar nominated composer, Philip Glass, the film is a disquieting and powerful essay on war, rationality, and the nature of history itself.
