The new movie by Steven Spielberg about Katherine Graham’s role in publishing the Pentagon Papers. I was surprised at how much I liked it.
Spielberg’s movies have also annoyed me a little. They are all good, and I always enjoy them. He has a nice formula, which I mean as both a compliment and a fault. He knows the steps to take to put together an entertaining movie but it often feels a bit too much a paint by numbers. I also feel like he’ s talking down to me too.
Meryl Streep is fantastic. I always been a little skeptical about her “greatness”, but I take it all back. She’s perfect in this one.
