The Oscars and Bureaucrats
The papers today note some of the top movies are favorable to DC figures, although the Post calls them "bureaucrats". I don't think Lincoln qualifies as a bureaucrat, he was a politician and a good one. The heroes of "Argo" and "Zero Dark Thirty" could be called bureaucrats I guess, and since they'll never make a movie, good, bad or indifferent, about a USDA employee, it's about the best we can do. (I enjoyed "Lincoln" and "Argo", haven't seen ZDT yet.)
