The Munich 1972 Olympic games will forever go down in infamy for
the killing of Israeli sportsmen by a terrorist group known as
Black September. If you wish to know more about the motives and
happenings on that fateful day, including the ineptness of the
Germans to manage the entire situation, resulting in the deaths of
almost all the perpetrators and the victims, do check out the
documentary One Day In September. But not to say that Steven
Spielberg's Munich fares any less. My recommendation is to watch
the documentary first if you wish to understand more of what
happened before, then to follow up with Spielberg's movie for the
tale of what happened after when the Mossad went after the
mastermind planners. So that you'll not be as irritating as the
bimbo sitting behind me asking her equally clueless boyfriend "what
happened? Why like that?"
