{movie} the trials of henry kissinger (2002)

This riveting documentary depicts former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger as a warmonger responsible for military cover-ups in Vietnam, Cambodia and East Timor, as well as the assassination of a Chilean leader in 1970. Based on a book by journalist Christopher Hitchens, the film includes interviews with historians, political analysts and such journalists as New York Times writer William Safire, a former Nixon speechwriter.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** A fascinating documentary looking at one of the most influential men in the Vietnam War. I always thought Kissinger was more honorable than this and I had no idea the kind of man he was, or at least the kind of man this documentary made him out to be.
