With the Cold War "raging" in full alert, Americans were on constant edge and fear of anything that even hinted at the spread of Communist ideals.

" Notes: Before Ben Affleck surprisingly became the hottest actor-turned-director at work nowadays, it seemed at some point that George Clooney would get this prestigious title. Indeed, with this movie, he was apparenly becoming a director to reckon with in the future. Unfortunately, his follow-up would be the really underwhelming ‘Leatherheads’ and it has been a decade since we have been waiting for something brilliant coming from this director. Anyway, coming back to our main feature, even"

The cast does an excellent job, and I liked"
