the unknown known
10/10
-
the definitive masterpiece of post modernity. american experimental arthouse film.
a lying war criminal plays donald rumsfeld, former bush admin defense sectary, who in this documentary interview questions the possibility that truth is knowable while interspersed footage of his press conferences disprove the truth of the very things he previously says.
the film cost the lives of over half a million iraqis to make and is definitive proof of the unknowability of all knowledge and the nihilistic chaos of existence, the failure of morality and the essence of human thought being opportunistic, biased, and unafraid of hypocrisy.
heavily influenced by zen philosophy, illustrating such truisms as "the more delusions are recognized, the more deluded a man is".
