Truth

Filmens tveklöst största behållning är Cate Blanchett...

...Robert Redford does make a terrific Rather. He’s doing an interpretation, not an impression, which means he incorporates some of Rather’s clipped Texas twang...

Blanchett is terrific as Mapes, juggling hard journalism and home life, serving breakfast to her son while fielding tough-as-nails phone calls.

...makes the compelling case that no one really asked if the story was true or not, merely using the furor over the documents as a way to tear down the rest of the piece.

At its best, Truth is an archaeological feat: an excavation of what was perhaps the first heinous overreaction to an online mob of self-appointed fact-checkers.
