Based on a true story, The Post follows the unlikely partnership between The Washington Posts Katharine Graham (Streep), the first female publisher of a major American newspaper, and editor Ben Bradlee (Hanks), as they race to catch up with The New York Times to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spanned three decades and four U.S. Presidents.

Dems love whistleblowers ... unless they expose the DNC or John Podesta.
Then they hate whistleblowers.

a massive cover-up of government secrets that spanned three decades and four U.S. Presidents.How about the massive cover up and protection of pedophiles and rapists that Streep participated in while the same time playing this paragon of virtue by blasting Trump?

DOA everywhere but in the DC metro.

That ugly old bag is “the biggest star in Hollywood”?
No wonder the industry is on the last swirl down the toilet.

Interestingly, I can't find any info on the film's budget.
Now I'm really wondering how much the film cost....

I do not believe I will see it. I have to give Hanks his due, however. I knew 5 pilots at Laughlin, who knew Chesley Sullenberger personally, from their Air Force Academy days. Sully became a household name, after he landed his aircraft in the Hudson. Those guys have told me Hanks did a pretty fair job of portraying Sully in the movie.
Beyond that, Hanks impresses me, only a little bit.

I’m boycotting Hollywood because of all the perverts, drug addicts and pedophiles telling middle American Conservatives they are living their lives all wrong.

Who will play Daniel Ellsberg, the Marxist co-author who despite a questionable history found employment at the RAND Corporation?

“Will there be a sequel about the fearless reporters at CNN?”
Ha. Wolf Blitzed in GW1 wetting his pants in the hotel while Baghdad burns, Whorealdo being given the boot from the battlefield by the brass for leaking intel, Don Lemon and Andersen Cooper love triangle with Barney Frank.

I’ve often thought the same. Properly done, bet the movie would be a hit.
