The Hamilton College Democrats and the Kirkland Democrats are hosting a screening of the Oscar-nominated documentary No End in Sight on Tuesday, March 4, at 7:30 p.m. in the Kirner-Johnson Auditorium in the Kirner-Johnson Building. Maurice Isserman, James L. Ferguson Professor of History, will introduce the film and moderate a brief discussion following the screening. The event is free and open to the public.
No End in Sight, directed by Charles Ferguson, was chosen as the best documentary of the year by the National Society of Film Critics and won the Special Jury Prize for Documentaries at the Sundance Film Festival. According to Washington Post writer Stephen Hunter, "The documentary is a furious, if quietly stated, indictment of the president and all his men in the debacle that our adventure in Iraq has turned into. Ferguson builds a compelling case of bad judgment, error, stubbornness, arrogance, all of it adding up to a mess with no end in sight."
