Charlie Wilson's WarA fast-moving, riveting film filled with quick, snappy, intelligent dialogue based on the true story of Charlie Wilson, Texas Congressman, who secretly funds the Afghanistanis' revolt against the Soviet Union. Thought this would be a slow-moving, dry, behind-the-scenes political story but it's not! The viewer is quickly sucked into the story. Philip Seymour Hoffman is excellent! Caution: strong language. -- recommended by Charlotte K. - Bennett Martin Public Library/Reference
