The Movie, “War Made Easy: How Presidents & Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death,” will be shown today at 7 p.m. at the Fairhope Unitarian Fellowship, 1150 Fairhope Avenue, across from the Baldwin County Satellite Courthouse.

Narrated by Sean Penn and produced by the filmmakers at the Media Education Foundation, “War Made Easy” is a powerful indictment of the current U.S. warfare state and a call to action.

The 73-minute film exhumes remarkable archival footage of official distortion and exaggeration from L.B.J. to George W. Bush, revealing in stunning detail how the American news media have uncritically disseminated the pro-war messages of one administration after another.

It exposes a 50-year pattern of deception that has dragged the U.S. into one war after another. And the film zeroes in on the current historical moment — the techniques of propaganda that are preventing an end to a horrific war effort based on lies.

The goal: Learn from history. Then change it.

The next documentary movie at the Fairhope Unitarian Fellowship will be “The New Industrial Revolution,” to be shown on Sept. 1.
