Independent Film
I chose to watch the Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner in 2005 Why We Fight. After reading what it was about I thought to myself this seems interesting. It is basically an anti-Bush documentary and since I was anti-Bush thought it'd be enjoyable to watch. The movie bashes the American government for sending us to war and lying to us about the reasons for why we are really at war. It is basically saying that war is profitable so obviously there is going to be more of it. There were several interviews of with politicians and other people and to be honest at some point I had no idea what they were talking about. I know nothing about politics so it was mostly just mumbo-jumbo to me. However I liked watching all the achieved war footage they showed and some of the stories told by war vets. From what I was able to take from this movie, I learned that the American government keeps one to many secrets from the public and when it comes down to it, all the government wants is money no matter who is killed or what need to be done.
