Charlie Wilson’s War

Texas congressman Charlie Wilson manages to win the cold war, or at least play a hand in ending the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, in the late 1980s. More a case of winning the battle but losing the war as history went on to show.

A banner reading “Charlie Did It!” can be seen at both the beginning and end of the movie. How different the banner’s meaning is by the closing scenes though…
