Product Information
One of the most important political documentaries ever made, POINT OF ORDER chronicles the Army-McCarthy hearings of 1954. Radical documentarian Emile de Antonio assembled the film from over 150 hours of footage into a tightly constructed examination of political maneuvering. The hearings took place after Sen. Joseph McCarthy's investigations into communist infiltration of the military overstepped its bounds, and McCarthy began indiscriminately accusing members of the army of communist sympathies. What resulted was McCarthy's eventual censure and the end of his political career. De Antonio presents the footage without commentary or narration, allowing the film and the event's participants speak for themselves, and for McCarthy to damn himself.Product Identifiers

Fascinating History as it Happened
How could this NOT be a stand-out piece? There is no narrator; only chronological news clips of McCarthy, Murrow, McClellan, Mundt and several hapless witnesses. As a child, I watched these hearings with my parents. They were/are very important in the history of our county, and I'm really glad to add this program to my collection on the hearings. I plan to watch the video again soon!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

History always repeats itself
Donald Trump has learned much from his association with Roy Cohn. Both are dishonest, and politically corrupt.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
