Fair Game 2010

Fair Game, is a movie based on true events. It is described as a biography, drama, and thriller at IMDB. It is not one of those loosely based or loosely inspired stuffs we normally see in the movie. The movie shows actual true events.

The theme of the movie is the events leading to the Iraq War, and the movie is shown from the view point of the two leading actors, Sean Penn and Naomi Watts, portrayed as husband and wife.

Naomi Watts portrays the actual CIA operative Valerie Plame whose identity was leaked by the White House when her husband wrote an article in the New York Times questioning the authenticity of the president George Bush's address to the public on Iraq possessing nuclear material.

The movie depicts the fight of one family against the White House for the truth, the internal tension that arises within the family, how their social life gets affected, and how they emerge from all this.

The movie is worth watching, is an understatement.
