Murrow on Freedom of Speech



David Strathairn as Edward R. Murrow in Good Night, and Good Luck.

Hugely inspiring words. As true today as they were yesterday, and will be tomorrow.

"We are not descended from fearful men..."

Marvy.

Brando's Bongos




Just wandered across a great old newscast!

Edward R. Murrow is interviewing Marlon Brando when, midway through the interview, Brando gets up, walks downstairs and really tears into a set of bongos with another hip cat, the legendary Jack Costanzo.

You've gotta see this:



Brando... Tres cool, no?

"How's every little thing?"
Love it.

Special thanks to Google Video for hosting the clip, and to whomever was kind enough to digitize and upload it.
