Scott Z. Burns – ALLIANCE OF WOMEN FILM JOURNALISTS

THE REPORT – Review by Brandy McDonnell

November 21, 2019 Brandy McDonnell 0 Comments Adam Driver, amazon studios, annette bening, Scott Z. Burns, the report

Jones spent five years compiling his 6,700-page report, and unfortunately, the movie feels at least this long, with the paper shuffling and screen scrolling occasionally broken up by flashbacks to the CIA black ops sites where the torture is happening. These scenes are understandably hard to watch, and Burns just keeps coming back to them.

THE REPORT – Review by Diane Carson

November 17, 2019November 20, 2019 Diane Carson 0 Comments Adam Driver, annette bening, cia, diane feinstein, Scott Z. Burns, the report, truth-based

Following the tragedy and trauma of 9/11, California Senator Dianne Feinstein charges staff assistant Daniel J. Jones to investigate and verify, or refute, information regarding the CIA’s Detention and Interrogation Program. Jones becomes obsessed with his task as high-level operatives and officials dissemble and misrepresent, flat out lie and withhold information.
