This film is a classic example of the inflated sense of worth and purpose people in "Hollywood" have. Every moment of the film oozed with contrivance and elitist pomposity to the point of distraction.

It's the first Spielberg film that I'm not excited about seeing... The thing is, I'd rather rewatch All The President's Men for some reason...

I heard the production on this movie was rushed as they wanted to get it out as soon as possible...

Is it cinematic? I'll probably watch All The Money In the World first and leave The Post until later in the week...

I haven't seen it, nor will I, but the footage from the trailers had a very theatrical flair, as if they were performing for the stage instead of the cameras. And Tom Hanks feels completely wrong in the part of a gruff editor. Also, sanctimony seems to be Meryl Streep's stock in trade, so not much of a stretch there.

It's very cinematic but ponderous as hell. Also, I'm not someone who gets all broken up over the need for a newspaper to publish the contents of stolen, classified documents.

That's exactly it. They were obviously performing and deliberately ratcheting up the drama for an effect. In my 20's I might have thought this was a great film, but having seen literally many hundreds of films by now, it's so contrived I just couldn't even finish watching it.

She most definitely knew.

I did laugh at one of the last scenes when Meryl Street was walking down the court steps with all these hippy women looking at her as if she's just fought for their cause...

But going back to the film itself; I enjoyed it, even if it was nothing spectacular. Reminded me of Bridge of Spies in that it was a real life drama yet there was very glossy.

It was a hard watch. Despite the importance of the free press at a time where numerous elected governments are undermining the rule of law and have a supine media failing to hold them to account, this was simply a pretty mediocre film with some very ordinary performances.

It was very strange the sense that we should root for a woman whose only qualification to run a media outlet is that her daddy had owned it and passed it down, like some hereditary title from the medieval age when people knew their place and knew their 'betters'. I'd have thought that is something to be lambasted rather than celebrated.
