About this movie

Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks share the screen for the first time in Steven Spielberg's THE POST, a thrilling drama about the unlikely partnership between The Washington Post's Katharine Graham (Streep), the first female publisher of a major American newspaper, and editor Ben Bradlee (Hanks), as they race against time to expose a massive cover-up of government secrets that spanned three decades and four U.S. Presidents. The two must overcome their differences as they risk their careers - and their very freedom - to help bring long-buried truths to light.

I enjoyed the movie- partly for the nostalgic throwback to a bygone era. If I had watched the film 15 years ago, I would have believed the scenes more. Given the popularity of feminism in recent years, I feel that the content is biased towards female power struggles/triumph. Must say I didn't really see the "tough call" the Post had to make- telling the truth when the government did wrong, will rarely get into trouble.

An intelligent film depicting a woman of quiet strength taking the reins of a great news publication in a man's world. A story of great courage and integrity in the face of bullying from a corrupt government. Great acting and a realistic script. Timely viewing, methinks. :-)

Giving this 5 stars, hopefully it will counteract the idiots giving it 1 star for political reasons (most of whom haven't even seen the film. Forget the actor's politics and see it for the great performances and gripping storyline.
