Director John Frankenheimer was no stranger to political thrillers, making him a perfect fit for "Path To War" (2002). In the mid-1960s, President Lyndon Johnson had an ambitious domestic program that was derailed by the war in Vietnam; this movie details the inevitable slide toward American involvement in that country. The roles of LBJ's policy advisors are explored in depth, and actors like Tom Skerritt, Alec Baldwin, Donald Sutherland and Frederic Forrest help make this an absorbing look at a difficult phase of American history.
