Snowden (2016): Dir: Oliver Stone / Cast: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto, Tom Wilkinson: What happens when the seemingly right thing to do will isolate oneself from family, career, country, etc. Based on a true story, Edward Snowden resides in Moscow after leaking leaking security information that he deemed fit for public viewing. After an army discharge due to a leg injury, he decided to serve his country by using his computer skills at the C.I.A. What he did not expect was the level of voyeurism that is used in order to prevent potential terrorist suspects but unfortunate lends unwanted views into the privacy of innocent civilians. As Snowden, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is smart but paranoid. He meets three journalist in a hotel room in Hong Kong to disclose what he knows yet realizes that his actions will be scrutinized by authorities. Shailene Woodley plays Lindsay Mills, a photographer and political activist who struggles to understand her boyfriend's level of secrecy while unaware of her own potential danger. Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto and Tom Wilkinson are all cast as journalists faced with information that can upset the emotional sense of safety within society. Sometimes doing what feels right can bring grave consequences yet standing up for truth and honor is a stand that is not as present as it should be. Instead we are left to voyeur or be watched.
