Re: movies
A fantastic Cold War propaganda film about a man who gets suckered into the CPUSA and has his eyes opened to the evil they represent. It's just a checklist of speeches and behaviours to show how unscrupulous the Commies were, how duped the recruits were, and how good and patriotic real Americans were. It would be impossible to best this with satire.

Re: movies
The best movie I've seen in several years. Very black comedy, but also very broad physical farce. The plotting of monstrous, unscrupulous boobs. I'd compare it favourably to Dr. Strangelove in its similar blending of horror and hilarity. The graphic novel it's based on is superb, but this outdoes it by several lengths. The humour and subtext—your leaders do not deserve respect—is comparable to Ianucci's Veep, but this doesn't have that same inside baseball quality to it.

This has been on my list for a while. It looks like a hoot.
