"What counts is on the screen and what it does to people. Raw material of Point of Order was shot by two network cameras in a fixed position grinding away for 188 hours during the 1954 Army-McCarthy hearings. The movie works because there are no tricks in it. It was stripped down to where it really mattered. The aesthetics was the politics, it was the character, the tone and voice, it was America. That's what movies are, not beautiful shots."

Happy birthday to the legendary documentarian Emile de Antonio, photographed here with Jean-Michel Basquiat, born on this day on May 14, 1919.
