Many oliver stone movies are very inacurate.

I think Hacking Democracy is pretty accurate, but that's a documentary.

Not overtly political, but I think "The Money Masters" is the best of the financial films/documentaries.

Accurate:
Why We Fight

Not Accurate:
Michael Moore and Oliver Stone movies (F-911 and JFK for starters)

Haven't seen the rest.

I really like Why We Fight.

Sad. I have watched that before. But from this thread, I started to watch again. I flew with that (now) squadron commander years ago. Great guy, but seeing that video with him being interviewed, I realized that could have been me (if I had stayed in). So brain washed. He thinks he is doing the right thing, not realizing the damage and suffering he is causing. Just doing his job... pass the blame off to the decision makers (politicians).

We all join with the right intentions, then (many of us, at least) realize we are just being used by the money interests.

MGM once did a curious casting... in 1937
...and then the film was in the red!!!
