Just finished a re-watch of the 2005 film, Lord of War, starring Nicolas Cage and Jared Leto, based upon the life of an independent international arms dealer. As I recall this excellent depiction of the underbelly of our global war machine, it was never promoted by the typical Academy Awards machine, and more than likely hurt both Cage's and Leto's careers, and more than promoted, was denigrated. But this film deserves much more attention, if for no other reason than to make people wake up to the scam of War.
And, no, I am not anti-gun for the average person's personal protection. This is not about that. This film just shows how we are all being conned by the big War Machine, from top to bottom.
Check it out if your curiosity is aroused.
