Plot summary

If you’ve seen Top Gun or Transformers, you may have wondered: Does all of that military machinery on screen come with strings attached? Does the military actually get a crack at the script? With the release of a vast new trove of internal government documents, the answers have come into sharp focus: the US military has exercised editorial control over thousands of films and television programs. As these activities gain new public scrutiny, new questions arise: How have they managed to fly under the radar for so long? And where do we go from here?

Great!

I loved the piece! Actually, I wish it was longer, with more details about more movies and how the CIA and the military interfered in the movies.It caught my attention in every scene (and quite disturbed sometimes, of course).I would love a "part two" with not only more details about the military and CIA interference in Hollywood but also how the political and economic scenarios are reflected in the movies.The solution presented at the end of the movie was something I had not considered before, and it makes total sense to me.Even though it is quite obvious after you realize it and it is presented to you.

Interesting and informative doc.

A very interesting film. Perhaps not the most dynamic or best made documentary you will see but one which has a lot to reveal about its subject and about pretty much all 'big budget' Us films made today.While I think people are generally aware that the US military has always been keen to throw its weight and money behind films which show it in a positive light the story here of just how widespread and ingrained it has become in all manor of television and film production and how much control it has over that was genuinely enlightening.It was surprising to me to find out that scripts with false or selective narratives are being written and promoted to film producers by the military itself and the ongoing efforts to hide this from the public was quite surprising too.There is a fine line between propaganda and promotion and this documentary clearly shows just how far into propaganda US film and television has slipped. It was certainly sad to hear of both live and dead soldiers who had been written and presented in degrading ways to either massage someones ego or because the military was not happy that they were injured or died in their service. What a crappy thing to do.Respect to those film makers who did not agree to have the US military rewritten their scripts and still managed to get their films made.
