National Theatre Live: Straight Line Crazy (2022)
Ralph Fiennes leads the cast in David Hare’s blazing account of the most powerful man in New York, a master manipulator whose legacy changed the city forever. For forty uninterrupted years, Robert Moses exploited those in office through a mix of charm and intimidation. Motivated at first by a determination to improve the lives of New York City’s workers, he created parks, bridges and 627 miles of expressway to connect the people to the great outdoors. Faced with resistance by protest groups campaigning for a very different idea of what the city should become, will the weakness of democracy be exposed in the face of his charismatic conviction?

Sorry, this movie sucks
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
