actually, it does. it makes sense as in, "lefty actors, directors, and screen writers are MAF but have no idea what they're mad at or how the world can be improved and this movie reflects that."

why was matt damon - a TV oil analyst - valuable at all to some random mideastern prince? if a prince were to try and pull off a democratic coup or something, he'd probably consult/hire some combination of military men and guys associated with top western intelligence/spy agencies.

he wasn't a tv oil analyst, he was a banker in oil and gas finance

They interview industry professionals on those business channels. He wasn't a tv analyst.

even less so now

it only made sense in the anti Cheney/Bush zeitgeist of that time

Memorable scenes and characters. Good writing. I liked The Constant Gardener, too. Also I admire Pinochet and irony.

worth it to see George Clooney get his finger nails pulled out. He also IRL cracked his head open in that scene when the chair tipped over. Brain fluid came out his nose.
