George Clooney

Paul McDonald's study of the actor-filmmaker George Clooney traces the star's career, from his role in the hit television medical drama ER to his dual screen persona, allowing him to move seamlessly from commercial hits such as 'Out of Sight' (1998) and 'Ocean's Eleven' (2001) to more offbeat roles in such films as 'Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?' (2000).

McDonald also considers Clooney's political activism and his roles in such explicity political films as 'Three Kings' (1999) and 'Syriana' (2005), as well as his work as a producer of films including 'Argo' (2012) and as director of 'Confessions of a Dangerous Mind' (2002); 'Good Night, and Good Luck' (2005) and 'Suburbicon' (2017) among others.
