It's Dr. Strangelove above all others.

Bob Roberts was a work of genius.

Wag the Dog is another good one.

I saw Bob Roberts when it first came out and I loved it. I recently came across a VHS of it (yeah, still got one of those machines) and so I had a chance to see it again. You're right, Don, it is a masterpiece and it's truer now than it was then.... and that's not a good thing.

Haven't seen "Bob Roberts". I'll have to watch it, Jack Black is indeed creepy as hell, John.

It's hard to find. Netflix and Hulu don't have it and it rarely shows up on TV, for obvious reasons.

Thanks Don. I have an independent video rental joint two doors down the street. If they don't have it, I'll be ordering it from Amazon. Wag the Dog looks interesting too.

I didn't care for Wag the Dog. It seemed like a contrived plot where the actors just phoned it in.
