Spin movie revisited

Tonight we watched the political satire Wag the Dog on DVD. We have seen the movie before, but with the current President and the war in Iraq the satire couldn't be more real. What a great film - the incomparable David Mamet is one of the script writers - of course. I especially like the 'motto' at the beginning: "Why does a dog wag its tail? Because a dog is smarter than its tail. If the tail were smarter, the tail would wag the dog." Plus: the full script.
