This documentary was directed by Errol Morris and assured it's place as one of the most succesfull war documentaries. The use of archives and interviews makes the documentary informative and intereseting.
I believe that this documentary is a true artwork in documenting McNamara's struggles as United States Secretary of Defense. It is astonishing to realize that all important desicions are ultimately taken by regular human beings, nobody else. It is very intereseting to follow the war, from the desicion makers point of view and it makes the audience realize the intensity of the desicions that where made.
I believe that it is a documentary which truly represents and informs about the Vietnam War and the cold war in general. It is valuable information which helpsus to analyze our history. I believe that Mcnamara's interview is a guide for the future and a way to learn from our past.

It was mesmerising to witness the desiocion making process and the reasoning behind the taken actions. Desicions which we study and read about in papers and books. Therefore, this was a very enlightning and capturing documentary.
