Death of a Great Man
Arthur Miller has passed away. Like many HS students, I read "Death of a Salesman" but that's not why I admire the playwright. I'm more partial to "The Crucible" because it was written at the time of the Red Scare, and in fact as a reaction against it. To the best of my knowledge I can't think of any other play since then to really go after our society in such a way. If there is any play out there that goes after the current terror hysteria, I definitely want to know about it.
In the broader sense, I'm drawing a blank on even movies that have the effect of something like Dr. Strangelove. Though I suspect this is mostly just a reflection of my knowledge.
