A suicidally disillusioned liberal politician puts a contract out on himself and takes the opportunity to be bluntly honest with his voters by affecting the rhythms and speech of hip-hop music and culture.
Just watched this work of art.

UP THERE WITH 'NETWORK' !

Review : http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbc ... /805220301
Quote:
`Bulworth'' plays like a cry of frustrated comic rage. It's about an archetypal character who increasingly seems to stand for our national mood: the guy who's fed up and isn't going to take it anymore. Funny, how in the 22 years since we heard those words in ``Network,'' we've kept right on taking it.

Going to have to be a damn good film to be 'up there with network'.

Will have to add it to my playlist.

For others, Network : http://www.naturalfreedom.info/viewtopi ... 3197#p3197

Auto-slap for recommending this so much.

After watching Propaganda, it makes the political speeches of this worth nothin' (and Bulworth is a covert socialism propaganda as well if my memory serves more than my hot-blooded reviews).

While it makes Network really the MASTERPIECE. (and watching Network in french put on new light on the movie as well ...).

So for those who did not watch it, Bulworth should only be seen if you like young Halle Berry (auto-slap again for recommending a movie based on female genetics), and if you like a gentle political bashing.

For Elaborate political bashing, watch Propaganda.

For an ACTUAL EXAMPLE of political and media tactics, schemes, bashing, watch Network.

And if you want an ACTUAL EXAMPLE of observation, analysation, stacking evidence, putting your ego out of the equation, watch the B&W masterpiece by Sidnet Lumet (Network's director) : 12 Angry Men

Lesson learn : Will stop recommending movies/sites/books just after I watched it and let it sink in first :geek: :lol:
