GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK

Join veteran news anchor Chuck Scarborough, whose accolades include an Edward R. Murrow award, to discuss the resonance of Clooney's movie in today's climate. Scarborough will also discuss his own experiences as a broadcast journalist and share some of his pivotal work. George Clooney's tribute to iconic newsman Edward R. Murrow celebrated its 20th anniversary earlier this year with a new life as a Tony-nominated Broadway show, which brings a timely context to Murrow’s legacy. But the original movie, a riveting black-and-white depiction of Murrow's efforts to expose the machinations of U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy in 1953 remains more gripping than ever. With the atmospheric edge of a first-rate film noir, Clooney’s sophomore outing as a filmmaker (which landed him an Oscar nomination for Best Director) turns the TV studio into a shadowy command center for an army of journalists preparing to do battle with an ominous foe. David Strathairn’s tough, calculated turn as Murrow (which scored the movie another Oscar nomination) is a masterclass of subtle gestures.DramaPT1H32MR2025-07-24
