1. That article sounds a bit sensational tbh.

2. The Daily Mail? Nuff said.

3. So was the movie.

I would blame an algorithm, but I watched the movie on DVD. Maybe my library account is hacked. The movie was the second in what they call "the paranoia trilogy."

4. Alan J Pakula's paranoia trilogy...

Pakula's films evoke dread, distrust + extreme skepticism of official stories. “Klute” (1971), “The Parallax View" (1974)
+ “All the President’s Men” (1976) take for granted that important people lie, + , in some cases, kill to cover up those
stories.

5. Indeed.

There was way too much of the present day in that movie.
