Am I risking life and limb by reviewing Laura Poitras\u2019s \u201cCitizenfour,\u201d the third in a trilogy of documentaries that cover what the director believes to be inequities in the U.S. government?\u00a0 According to this doc, which focuses largely but not exclusively on whistleblower Edward Snowden, our government has assumed the power to spy on us without the need for warrants.\u00a0 The U.S. may look at our emails, listen to our phone-calls, look into our Facebook, Linkedin, Instagram, iPhone texts, sexts, you name it. If the government believes that any of us are terrorists, prosecutions may take place or at any rate harassments such as detention for hours at airports.\u00a0 So\u2026since \u201cCitizenfour\u201d has a director who is in essence herself a whistleblower, might the U.S. have not only her on its list of suspects but also anyone who has contact with her, even those who write reviews\u2014particularly if those reviews are laudatory?<\/p>\n

But OK I\u2019ll take the chance. Like the vast majority of us, I have nothing to hide.\u00a0 As one Hochh\u00e4user, another person upset by government policy, states in a New Yorker magazine article about Laura Poitras in the Oct. 20, 2014 issue, \u201cBecause most of the people think, \u2018Yes, but it won\u2019t happen to me, and, anyway, I have nothing to hide.\u2019\u00a0 It\u2019s always the same argument.\u201d\u00a0 However he does not follow up to show that such a viewpoint is not a moral one.\u00a0 We should be concerned, he implies, even if we don\u2019t think we will ever have anything to hide, because our country was founded on civil liberties, and one of those implied liberties is the right of privacy.<\/p>\n

Laura Poitras\u2019s previous docs are \u201cOath\u201d (two men have an encounter that will lead them to Afghanistan), and \u201cMy Country, My Country\u201d (a Sunni Arab doctor runs for office in the 2005 election).\u00a0 This time she films meetings particularly with Edward Snowden in a Hong Kong hotel where he stayed for a few months before heading to Russia, at which point he was recently granted a year\u2019s asylum.\u00a0 While interviewed by Ewen MacAskill, a U.K. intelligence journalist, and principally by Glenn Greenwald, an American journalist who now resides in Rio, Snowden casually walks to the window several times to observe the Hong Kong skyline, washes up and takes a shave, and answers questions while pecking away at a laptop computer while sitting in yoga-like positions on the hotel bed.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Snowden, who had worked as a systems engineer, was able to haul away significant documentation about the government surveillance techniques.\u00a0 Snowden believes that it is the job of journalists, and not his, to determine what may be revealed in the press without compromising national security.<\/p>\n

While a clip shows President Obama revealing his belief that Snowden is no patriot, Poitras herself avoids making him into a hero in favor of simply documenting the man\u2019s character without hiding Snowden\u2019s paranoia (the whistleblower sometimes hides under a blanket).<\/p>\n

Though Snowden had every reason to avoid becoming a whistleblower\u2014a girlfriend, Lindsay Mills who he left in Hawaii but who visits him in Moscow and a good job at age twenty-nine\u2014he expresses a powerful belief in what he is doing, which is to help put the brakes on (he thinks) America\u2019s slide into authoritarianism.\u00a0 Neither Hong Kong nor Russia has had any interest in returning him forcefully to face U.S. prosecution, so while he holes up in a Moscow flat (seen through a window cooking soup with his girlfriend), Greenwald becomes his spokesperson, leading press conferences abroad.\u00a0 Before leaving Snowden, however, Greenwald shows Snowden revelations even more serious than those previously uncovered, then tears the paper into little bit, the camera revealing only \u201cPOTUS\u201d (President of the United States).<\/p>\n

While some critics have called the documentary \u201criveting,\u201d \u201clike a John Le Carr\u00e9 spy story,\u201d \u201cCitizenfour,\u201d which received exposure at festivals such as one in New York, is dry, involving conversations with the director always in the background.\u00a0 There\u2019s little doubt that we learn much from the coverage, but one would hope that some of Michael Moore\u2019s touch would lighten the humorless documentation.<\/p>\n

Unrated\u00a0\u00a0 114 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
