	OFFOFFOFF film review BLUE CAR movie by Karen Moncrieff with David Strathairn, Agnes Bruckner, Margaret Colin, Frances ...
		Beautiful, smart, fascinating — and just as often misbehaving and irritable — Meg seems asocially indifferent in school until her English teacher (the always-excellent David Strathairn) pushes her to pierce her outer numbness and confront the inner rawness that it masks.
		David Strathairn's Auster seems noble and wise, but his weaknesses emerge too as the film builds toward an unexpected ending.
		First-time writer-director Moncrieff, whose acting resume includes a seemingly unpromising string of soap operas and made-for-TV movies, achieves a real breakthrough with "Blue Car." Her film is made with love and humanity but rarely settles for simplistic stereotypes or maudlin emotions.

Murrow (David Strathairn) and Senator Eugene McCarthy, whose anti-communist witch hunts ruined many a career and created a pervasive culture of paranoia in the United States in the early 1950s.
		In this, his most prominent lead role to date, Strathairn is riveting.
		Though he sits motionless during Murrow's monologues, Strathairn's commanding delivery, his steady gaze, and his brazen pose (lit cigarette held high, on camera) claim every ounce of your attention.
