I absolutely adore Elliottt Smith, 3. the socioeconomics and sheer heart in this movie, or 4. everything else
Will absolutely cooked with that NSA rant

A Woman Under the Influence 1974

Z 1969
A topical and captivating exploration on spin, the construction of political narrative, and the qualities of fascism.

It's ultimately realistic, of course basing its story on the Greek junta and assassination of Grigoris Lambrakis but still contributes such takeaways so that it doesn't completely quash hope, at least for this viewer.
