Truth
by James Platten Vanderbilt
cast: Robert Redford e Cate Blanchett
(Australia/ United States, 2015, 125′)
In the lead-up to the U.S. presidential elections in 2004, veteran CBS News producer and reporter Mary Mapes and the venerable CBS News anchor Dan Rather aired a sensational report on 60 Minutes II that purported to reveal new evidence proving that President George W. Bush had possibly shirked his duty to serve in the Vietnam War by exploiting his family connections and political privilege. But within days after the story broke, George W. Bush’s military service record was no longer the focus of media and public scrutiny. Instead, it was 60 Minutes, Mapes, and Rather who were under fire for challenging the official version of the story, and now they were facing charges of shoddy journalism.
Based on the book “Truth and Duty: The Press, the President, and the Privilege of Power” by Mary Mapes, the screenplay is by Zodiac writer.
