Oct 24, the movie: 'CITIZENFOUR' comes out. It sounds interesting.
Given the passions that the NSA disclosures have generated, it’s
remarkable how tempered Citizenfour comes across. Reflecting a style
Poitras seems to share with Snowden, it’s a quiet movie, its soundtrack a
sinister digital throb, packed tight with questions about how we live
freely in an unseen dragnet. One of its only boisterous moments comes
when Snowden and Greenwald discuss the spirit animating both the
reporting and Snowden’s decision to reveal himself. Greenwald describes
it as “the fearlessness and the fuck-you”.
That fearlessness attracted Snowden to Poitras, and it shows through her camera.
