Well, on paper we all know he was a straight-arrow child UN agency served within the Navy, married his high-school sweetheart, was electoral to Congress and have become, at 43, the country's youngest Secretary of Defense. Also, many presidents later, our oldest Secretary of Defense.




And then, most basically maybe, the designer of our post 9/11 political science ways, the cheerleader for our wars in Asian nation and Islamic State of Afghanistan, and also the man answerable once prisoners were — let's use the right words — tortured and abused.

But what would he rather we have a tendency to not fathom him?

That's the fuel behind "The Unknown noted," a laser-focused documentary from Errol Morris. Morris has force individuals into the spotlight before (including another Secretary of Defense, Robert S. McNamara). however Rumsfeld may be a special case.


For one issue — no insult to former Morris subjects — he is whipsmart. (A Princeton grad, Rumsfeld went on to Georgetown Law and may not solely assume quick on his feet, however clearly enjoys the provide and take of philosophy, debate, even semantics).


For another — not like McNamara — he has no doubts, no second thoughts and positively no guilt. You trouble stationing troops in Afghanistan? With the perpetual detention of captured combatants? Well, then, maybe you ought to specific those thoughts to this president — who's unbroken those Bush-era policies in situ.



In many ways, this is often a typical Morris documentary, with a nicely insistent score (by Danny Elfman) and also the director's suave gift for figure of speech (Rumsfeld's habit of concealment individuals in white memos is illustrated with a snowglobe; the essential impenetrability of "the real facts" by a colossal, slowly moving ridge ocean).


Yet though Morris remains offscreen (in reality, the sole "talking head" here is Rumsfeld) you'll be able to hear him obtaining additional concerned than usual; the calmer Rumsfeld remains, the additional agitated his inquirer grows: however will this man's confidence stay therefore unshaken?


Sometimes Morris gets his revenge within the piece of writing area. Rumsfeld's insistence that he ne'er steered Saddam bin Hussein at-Takriti had links to foreign terrorist organization is followed by a press-conference clip proving that to be a lie; his assertion that nobody ever steered that Gitmo techniques were exported to different facilities is perpendicular by a political candidate report spoken language the precise opposite.

And yet, confronted, Rumsfeld remains assured, smiling, imperturbable. Nothing provokes him to exclaim something stronger than a "Goodness!", including dish the dirt on his White House competition with Condoleeza Rice. He stanchly resists second-guessing — including apologizing for — any of his selections.

If this was meant to be a portrait, it's one fully framed by its subject.

Who might stay the most important noted unknown of all.
