    V for vendetta is my go to for a political movie.

    Some thought that cartoonish villains taking over western countries while the rest of the world went to shit was far fetched but here we are.

      That’s the thing you don’t know if the rest of the world did go to shit. That’s the point of fascist take over and propaganda they put out. “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

    Wag the Dog is my personal political favourite – still holds up well after all these years. It came out in 1997, just at the same time the Clinton/Lewinski scandal surfaced.

    War is continuation of politics by other means, so we can say Come and see by Elem Klimov (hard to see). There are few apolitical things, and a movie is not one of those.
