Snowden (2016)
Spyro Rating: 8,0 /10 as "a whistleblower"
Director: Oliver Stone
Stars: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, Rhys Ifans, Nicolas Cage
Edward Snowden is the man who in June 2013 changed our world as the importance of facts he revealed. His actions are still debated in his country whether he is a hero or a traitor. Regardless of what one's believe in that matter, the personal story of what made Snowden's mind is very interesting and we already got a couple books released and this movie too.
The authors described their story presentation as a "dramatization of actual events that occurred between 2014 and 2013". Edward Snowden did not get to decide what will the movie include but he provided information to book authors, director Oliver Stone and actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt. This film is a must watch if you are trying to get the story strait.
It might end up as a case of a man who will remain exiled for the rest of his life while in contrary history will regard him as a hero. To my mind we should thank Edward Snowden because he provided proof in how those in power violate everyone's freedom. Today that sentence no longer gets discarded as "conspiracy theories" and some governments have walked baby steps to solve things.
