Somehow never heard of it.
Did anyone see this movie? There is a scene that Hackman talks about helping to cheat in the 1960 election.
It’s always been a favorite of mine. Hackman was great. As usual.
It is now on the list. I look forward to it. With Sopranos, Peaky Blinders, and Boardwalk Empire watched recently, it’s all crime all the time!
**Enemy of the State** is another good flick in the meme setting.
Also is very current looing despite being made in 1998.

Speaking of surveillance films, ‘The Lives Of Others’ is a terrific film set in East Germany and dealing with the activities of Stasi spying on E.German citizens. William Buckley called it the best film he had ever seen.
It’s in German with English subtitles. It’s not a Mission Impossible type action film, builds slowly with a great ending that ties everything together.
Just watched Hackman in “The Package”, it opened the backside of political reality for all to see. “The Conversation” is another in the genre. Love these movies, and Hackman is one of the best ever.
Another good one, sort of in the same vein, is the 1997 Wim Wenders film, The End Of Violence.
Great movie and a great stretch for Cindy Williams
