The Cold War era: The man who saw Reds under beds
http://news.independent.co.uk/world/americas/article344224.ece
Senator Joseph McCarthy, the subject of a new film by George Clooney,
terrified Fifties America with tales of Communist infiltrators. But why

Published: 09 February 2006
The film Good Night and Good Luck contains many striking performances -
by George Clooney, Frank Langella, Jeff Daniels, Robert Downey Jnr and
especially the lean-faced, perma-smoking David Strathairn as crusading
TV news anchor Ed Murrow.
But one performance doesn't quite fit with the others. It's simply a
face, mouthing lazy threats from a TV screen, but what a face - a
boxer's mug, hostile and pugnacious, the eyes deep-set and hooded, a
witch's peak of hair arrowing across a pasty brow.
