i'm looking for smart well-done movies about interesting "real-life"y topics and scripts that don't condescend. I'd prefer if they weren't crime movies and would prefer if they were more on the drama side of things than being driven by action. I'd prefer if they were more realistic than artsy, but that's not so important
Pic related is what I'm talking about (and is Mad FUcking underrated on here)
Some others would be
Glengarry Glen Ross (and other Mamets like Spartan and Heist)
Raging Bull
The Insider
and so on

my best friend's dad is in it. he's the one who calls Clooney out when he's at the defense meeting early on. the guy who the camera pans to when he says "CLI. Committee to liberate Iran"
How about this? It's got action, suspense, great photography excellent characters, and it's based on a true story.

I tend to not enjoy British studio films very much, because I find they use space very poorly and the product feels cramped and uncomfy, but I'll look into it. Thank you friend

Z by Costa Gavras is an amazing political thriller.
besides syriana, clooney has a film called goodnight and goodluck, that i also recommend
I fucking love Syriana, that and Michael Clayton are based as fuck
>I'm looking for a movie that confirms my liberal bias
