CLIP DESCRIPTION:
On an airplane, Charlie (Tom Hanks) tells Bonnie (Amy Adams) a childhood story about when he first realized he loved America.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Produced by Tom Hanks, written by Aaron Sorkin, and directed by Mike Nichols, this adaptation of George Crile III's incendiary bestseller tells the remarkable story of the Texas congressman whose efforts to prevent the Red Army from overtaking Afghanistan eventually led to the collapse of the Soviet Union while simultaneously fueling the rise of radical Islam. In the early 1980s, a hastily assembled army of Afghan "freedom fighters" achieved the remarkable feat of fending off Soviet invaders despite the fact that the odds were overwhelmingly stacked against them. At the time, Texas congressman Charlie Wilson (Hanks) was a key member of the hugely powerful House Appropriations Committee. Illuminated to the specifics of this remarkable war by a high-profile Houston socialite, Wilson spearheaded an effort to provide hundreds of millions of dollars in weapons and training to the Mujahideen with more than a little help from brilliant but prickly CIA operative Gust Avrokotos.

![Amy Adams | Charlie Wilson's War All Scenes (1/2) [4K]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5XCnX3mJjNU/mqdefault.jpg)
The scenes with Amy Adams really made Tom Hanks shine.
A tomato farmer killed my dog with cyanide when I was 16. Me and a friend drove our pickups through his tomato fields that next Saturday night. Sunday afternoon 2 Sheriffs Deputies came by the house asking did I ruin about 25 acres of tomatoes? They actually had that POS farmer with them, I denied it but I told them I wish I had because that POS killed my dog for eating a couple of tomatoes out of a 75-acre field. They ask him if he killed my dog and admitted it with pride. The head Deputy said I guess we are done here. The farmer very loudly said Aint your gonna arrest him? The Deputy said back to the farmer Don't push it!
@Margaret Craigie the dog must have been pretty hungry to eat a tomato. This whole thing sounds like some backwoods grizzly adam B plot movie
So your dog was vegetarian?
Dogs eat their own crap on a daily basis and these chinchilla lovers are side eyeing one eating ripe tomatoes off a vine.
Dogs are not strictly carnivorous, my pet boxer loves bananas and boiled carrots.
If someone killed my dog I would end him.
Ugh Amy Adams is just as sweet as they come.
Chris Wolff Amy adams is sweet, I never knew she was in this movie, this was before she really got famous, she grew up in Castle Rock, Colorado just miles north of where we lived in Colorado Springs, I remember reading about her in the Denver post, saying she made it to the big screen. that was in 2007 when she was making this movie, and I also never knew she was in Catch me if you can ,with Leonardo Dicaprio
Amy portrays a nun in "Doubt" (co-starring Phillip Seymour Hoffman) and a trampy and vulgar bar girl in "The Fighter". She's versatile.
This was the day I fell in love with Amy Adams.
I just looked it up.
His ENTIRE story he told here was true... 100%.
I am so used to Hollywood making up SO much in their movies.
It was incredibly refreshing to actually see them tell it exactly as it was.
☮
Walt Disney tells Princess Giselle a story.
Revenge is sweetest when you take something the offender loves kick him in the stones and hit his wallet. Charlie hit the trifecta.
Don't forget about the limo driver...
Amy Adams was always dreamy.
+Ice Breaker There's a lot of Audrey Hepburn in Amy, wouldn't you say?
Amy Adams, Rachel Nichols...all of them are blazing.
Poor dog but that's a beautiful story.
About the beauty of votersuppression? What?
@titanuranus3095
What voter suppression?
@@Seth9809 the lack of voting stations in black areas
@@titanuranus3095 Not building something is not the same thing as destroying it.
@@Seth9809 Denying people access to voting is denying people access to voting, are you dim?
I am a mess. This scene chokes me up. Cherish and learn from one another. End hate.
That is a thoughtful act of revenge.
In his 2011 book Afgantsy, former British ambassador to Russia Rodric Braithwaite describes the film as "amusing but has only an intermittent connection with historical reality.
Are you saying that Mr. Hazard did not kill Charlie Wilson's dog? Because that would make me feel a lot better.
This is the best and most fantasstic movie cli[s of a movie that is the ,ost moving I have seen i ,y 90 years of life.
Flying in the 80s on the upper deck of a 747 profoundly drunk. Nice, very nice.
A.Adams at her best in A. Hustle.
My favorite line is when he says "Get me another one of them" in that southern drawl.
When I was about 14 The Neighbor shot and killed my German Shepard while I was on vacation visiting my Grand Parents. Well My Mom and Step Dad must have known that I would have done something to that A-Hole because they lied to me and told me that she had died of some weird disease. I did not find out until 30 years later what had happened.
Yeah OK. Cool fake story
@@traviscoates6878 your like an uncool fake story. Burn!
He would’ve been arrested for firing a gun in city limits or damaging private property.
Best scene in the whole movie.
Uh no sir.
0:22 having a crush on her all over again
+Zenzi Sage Yeah...that aura of innocence and enthusiasm. How can one NOT fall in love with her?
Another great scene...
I just fell in love with America, too. :-)
Amy Adams is really hot...
thats the day i fell in love with gerrymandering
Ugh,stfu
The 2nd District of Texas is different then.
never lost a pet that way
but my next door neighbor put cement in my diesel tank once about 10 years ago and one day wile he was out at work i dissolved about 50 pounds of lye in 50 gallons water
even today he cant grow a lawn or garden and he loved growing tomato's and chilies every summer 5 or so more years and grass will start to grow again just got to leach out a bit more lye
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW POLITICS WORKS. Some of these comments suggest to me that most don't know how their own brain works.
I'm as hard as a diamond in a ice storm
Imagine America;s response if Coronavirus killed dogs.
me rn. Thanks America for restoring my faith.
How nice it would be if we held the animals of our supposed "government" to this standard today. We might not be seeing America in a nosedive from their self-destructive efforts.
God bless America
This is why we fight so hard for free elections in the US.
You know lots of other country have elections right? Lots of them even have better election systems... no gerrymandering or electoral college to get in the way of the peoples will. Besides we in america wont have free or fair elections anymore in a few years if the conservatives get what they want, you are correct about that. I fear for our country and the fascists rising to destroy it
@@corvus2512 photo ID especially. I live in the Philippines and nobody I talk to, friends from Japan, Germany, Thailand - nobody believes me that the US has no photo ID requirement. Absurd. The corruption in the US voting system is deep.
2020 was the USA's last free and fair election.There will be no others.
@@joebombero1 To register... you have to prove who you are. So with that I reported you for misinformation.
@@jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj178 Pull her string. See what catch phrase she says next. Why did you guys add free to the phrase? 60+ lawsuits... only a couple stood up. And even for those couple the elected officials remained the same.
This type of principled American politician is GONE.
I hoped I could help. I cannot.

am I the only one who can´t take his eyes off of Amy Adams?
Nope!
she is amazing in everything she does
I rather John Wicks version for getting revenge...
VOTE.
My neighbor didn't kill my dog, but I burnt down their garage
You ain’t drive no 96 ppl to the polls
Fking Forrest Gump gets everywhere :/
who said it wasn't?
I fell in love with America when I got off a murder charge due to a legal technicality.
high five bro
Cool
Lots of talky words.gibelygogelyhihi.
Don't you have to register to vote?
Also why would black people decide to vote for the first time in their lives just because some white kid they don't know showed up with a car?
But Amy Adams is very pretty, that's nice =).
You're not very bright are you...
he is awesome
So what he's saying is that black votes can even be swayed by a 13 year old by appealing to their emotions?
Oh God. There's always one of you.
Yep, that's what's implied. And I guarantee the story made many think about how the Democrats get votes from "low information" voters (of all races) using lies and identity politics.
I wouldn't vote for someone who intentionally killed a pupper, and I'm white so.. what's your point? Or were you just looking for something to be offended by?
@@1Learn2Swim3 you'd probably still vote Biden if he killed a ..."pupper" tho
Every election appeals to every single voter's emotions. Otherwise, you wouldn't have posted this sloppy comment.
Democracy used to be here in the good old USA. USED to mind ya. Not anymore.
***** As it has been said, there is no good way to govern the human race, but out of all democracy is the least harmful. But alas...as I have stated, democracy does not exist here in its true form. I would ask though...what form of govt would you propose? I would offer that a govt structured upon the ideals of classical European libertarianism and socialism would be the ideal structure that we implement polices from. That said, we need free and fair representation and that is what democracy provides.
+Hubboons You were wrong 2 years ago and you are wrong now. Democracy is about preventing the concentration of power in the hands of the few by distributing it among the people. ALL THE PEOPLE, not just the ones you like. In your case you seem to only like yourself. Good luck with that.
Well America has never been a democracy (that's a clever trick as democracy is a socialist idea that leads to oppression but it's presented as something good) America is a constitutional republic but as you say that is not true today it is now nothing short of a fascist dictatorship that uses modern methods to destroy liberty freedom and the people's will by domination of banking and the media with an international clique of central bankers
The USA is a Republic not an democracy
+ThePoorPrepper That's like saying the Corvette is a Chevrolet not a car.
Amy Adams was hot for a while back in the day but she was over 30 when she really had her break out. This was her at her prime. She is still ok for an older gal, but she's lost a lot of ground since this film...
This idea that America, that is the USofA as there are numerous other countries in the Americas, is the only country where you can cast a vote or organize politically to remove someone from office is so outdated, trite and inaccurate, it makes me teeth hurt. You can do that in every major industrialized western democracy and many small ones and many eastern ones. Those other democracies? Almost none allow companies and wealthy special interests to buy politicians to the extent we do here in our system.
for major positions, this would be true, but this was some small town city council election that most people didn't care about. As Charlie stated, only 400 people voted, and he ferried a quarter of them to the voting booths.
@@liamcollins9183 Not to mention that this election would have been taking place in the late 1940s or about 1950 in rural Texas - it's quite a significant achievement given the period and the circumstances.
Did this nice little anecdote hurt you so bad? Really? He's telling a story about why he grew to appreciate his country, in his country. It's not an accusation against any other country. Quit projecting your insecurity everywhere.
@@flyoptimum I am very secure and anyone very secure in their politics and experience can share their view on certain attitudes. And if you think there is not a superior. hubristic attitude in our country suggesting that we are the only place in the world where such things happen (there are 50-100 others), then I got a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. I respect this guy and respect his POV and was pointing out something that I thought was self-evident and broadly supported by facts.
@@briankgruber Except that he didn't suggest that, at all. You're not reacting to the statement he made, but to some other thing you wish he said so that you can feel justified going off on your preferred tangent.
Listen, you don't have to love your country. I mean it, really, you don't. Countries are just groups of people in a particular place at a particular time held together temporarily by a particular social contract that will expire eventually. That is the unavoidable truth of history.
Just understand, you're not any better than the person who uncritically cannot see fault in his country if you are incapable of seeing anything good, or worth being grateful for. Calm down, take things at face value, and stop being a miserable person looking for opportunities to be offended over nothing.
He fell in love with America because voting??? News flash...America's democracy blows compared to other countries.
Well it matters in the time period it was in, nowaways not so much obviously. Votes were more powerful in the 20th century.
the us of a is a constitutional republic , not a democracy
@@Spearca in a democracy the people are the ultimate power...in a constitutional republic the constitution is the ultimate power
democracy sucks...mob rule
"I fell in love with America..." I guess he would not have made a good modern Democrat.
Isn't the current republican president's motto "make america great again", thus implying he thinks it's currently NOT great?
@@lucromel The irony of "Make America Great Again" being used by an incumbent campaign being completely lost on the candidate and his supporters. Though previously using "Keep America Great" during high unemployment and a pandemic with uncontrolled spread causing over 200,000 American deaths and counting wasn't really any better.
Yep Democrats still do this today. If they lost just 6% of the black votes they would never get in office as President
I know that killing someone's dog is personal, but dammit, Charlie was responsible for his dog's actions and he rightly suffered the consequences. His motivation to burn his neighbor's flowerbed and vote him out of mayor would make me hate America. Not that I do: I love this country and what it stands for, but that doesn't give me the right to do damage to my neighbor via my own recklessness and irresponsibility. If I can't foster freedom for my neighbor, then why should I be free?
I'll tell you one thing: if Charlie Wilson were to invade on my property and attempt to destroy it, I would shoot him.
Mr Hazzard is responsible for his OWN actions.
Mr Hazzard should have talked to Charlie directly about the Dog's actions. More to the point even, Mr Hazzard should have talked to Charlie's DAD about the dog.
Gosh, it's a good think that it wasn't one of Wilson's toddler brothers that pulled up all the flowers, death penalty for sure.
However the bigger point is that Hazzard was not justified in a vigilante action. He could have gone to small claims, he could have called the sheriff, he could have had someone mitigate. But he chose to kill, without due process. I think he got off easy.
His motivation? You mean his basic humanity? The neighbor was *not* free to kill the dog. You "freedom-loving" libertarian types always make those sorts of mistakes in your ideology because you don't understand the difference between rights and privileges or how to interact with other human beings within a functional society.
Leave.
And what does it stand for ?
