Facts Behind ‘Men Who Stare at Goats’
Lisa Pease - November 16, 2009
Can people really influence the physical world with thought alone? And if so, dare we use that power for evil, instead of good? Or will the effort come back to haunt us?
That is the quandary posed by the film “The Men Who Stare at Goats,” and, even more so, by the book of the same name that inspired the film.
First, run — do not walk, do not pass Go — to the theater to see “The Men Who Stare at Goats.” Films that are both hilarious and intelligent, provocative yet madcap, are hard to come by.
And because this film teaches us, in a wildly entertaining manner, about recent military and intelligence history, I have a feeling certain people will work hard to rush this movie right back out of the theaters. So see it before showings of it, like some of the characters in the film, disappear.

Would have loved to be a fly on the wall when they asked Chuck Heston to provide the voice of God on the subliminal tapes. How did that go down? “Hey Chuck loved you as both Moses and God in ‘Ten Commandments!’ How’d you like reprise your roll as the Creator of the Universe and help us lure a bunch of cultists out of a compound in Texas?” Not too surprising they’d recruit him. He is a Boho after all, or at least, so I’ve heard. Saw M.W.S.A.G in theater. It was okay. I’m convinced Clooney is some kind of Government Agent in real life, the my evidence for this is admittedly sparce.
