Went to see In The Loop. Was a fund-raiser for ALP Federal Member for Sydney, Tanya Plibersek (Minister for Housing, Status of Women).
It’s hilarious and was made even better cos of being surrounded by policy wonks who got all the jokes. Very funny and dire. Good appearance by Steve Coogan, of Alan Partridge fame. Great scene in a car in London when the Minister debates why he went into politics — is it braver to do the right thing or the wrong thing?
Classic scene with a fax machine, OMG.
Funny scenarios sending up the machinations at the UN in New York and the Meditation room.
