and if you listen -- you talk to colin powell or dick cheney about this, dick cheney would say he disagreed sometimes in the meetings and he would say, speak up, if you disagree with me speak up, because they trusted each other and they trusted the boss, the president. it wasn't about dishing dirt on him, it was about let's give the president the best advice and let him make the call and we'll do our job. i remember before the first gulf war i traveled with secretary cheney and general powell when they were traveling around the world, essentially telling the members of the coalition it is time, that we've had the buildup and around the holidays the air war is about to begin and here is the plan. it was remarkable. you would have moments on a long trip, as you know, where you are refuelling in shannon as you did in those days, again, the reverence with which they were doing their jobs. if dick cheney or jim baker said this, they were speaking for the president. they were that kind of a team. >> talk about a different time also -- >> i remember vividly together with all of you because i was t

the dark comedy charts the rise of dick cheney. you may remember him. the most powerful vice president in u.s. history. the film reunites the actor christian bale, who plays cheney, with adam mckay, who directed bale in "the big short." john dickerson caught up with them in los angeles. >> i want you to be my vp. i want you. you're my vice. >> reporter: "vice" spans 50 years of dick cheney's rise to power. zplt vice presidency is a mostly symbolic job. >> reporter: the film portrays cheney as a shrewd political operative. >> however, if we came to a different undeinhea "ve" happened by wh the flu, directom mckay picked up a book on cheney. >> i started reading it. i was like oh, my god. i saw a love story there. i saw anrc ofambition. >> at which point do you thrt thinking about christian? while you're writing it or reading it? >> when dick cheney's described as a man lacking any charisma. right? that was when you went, got to be bale. >> we're going to show the world what true power is -- >> i saw change in america. i saw fear, paranoia. >> are you eve

and people like dick cheney and donald rumsfeld who are relatively new to government at the time did not like when congress said we need to step in and confront the national security state and what's become a very out of control kill program cheney then went on during the reagan years in the eighty's to serve in congress and when the iran contra scandal broke out into the open cheney did not like congress being involved with anything that the executive branch was doing. and you had this other scandal that emanated from the highest echelons of power and the reagan administration was acting as though it had nothing to do with it i've told you all that i know and you know the truth of the matter is for quite some long time all that you knew was what i told you. to let me. tell you. our witnesses morning is mr robert mcfarlane the former national security adviser to the president. mr mcfarlane will you welcome you to the committee and we look forward to your testimony. mr mcfarlane. did you have any discussion about the possibility. of in effect farming out the whole contra support opera

what barbara bush told me is that george had great faith in dick cheney, and in? a. yes, sir w. to make the right decisions given the still generalization he was getting and george h.d. did not intervene but one reason he doesn't intervene, say, junior, you're doing it wrong, is because he understands the office of the presidency. he also understands he doesn't want to be another burden to his son. there are so many burdens inherent in that office, he is not going to be -- contribute to a additional burden for his son. but i do think he has hesitation but the direction that dick cheney is taking his son in. >> he moved really far right and then w. bristles at the narrative that even shared by his family, that cheney was too powerful. >> it's true. if you look at -- george w. bush is the self-proclaimed decider. but those who know george w. bush knows that he has this almost confidence in his ability to make decisions and can hear -- a very quick study and can hear things and coalesce them in his mind and spit out a decision and usually a pretty informed one. so this very notion

the film vying for the most awards is "vice," a satirical biopic of former vice president dick cheney, but it faces strongon competirom blockbusters including "a star is born," "black panther," and "bohemian rhapsody." i have been speaking about the nominations with elahe izadi of "the washington post."oi thanks forng me. i have to confess that i only tve seen "black panther," so give me a shortcwhat i should be watching between now and january and who is going to win what. elahe: one of the surprising things that came out of this golden globe nomination announcement is "vice," this movie about vice president dick cheney that received six nominations which the general public is not even seen yet. you are not alone in not seeing nwese movies. that comes out nate on christmas day. some of the other big movies were "green book" and "a star is born," both of which have come out. r "a sis born" is the bradley cooper-lady gaga hit. it was a commercial hit and critical hit. it received five nominations. "green book," which disappointed icat the box oand got mixed reviews from critics, also g

the dick cheney by epic was nominated for best comedy, screenplay and actor nomination for christian bale. the actor is barely recognisable playing the former us vice president. oscar frontrunner have five nominations each. a star is born is that read, of being both critically acclaimed and a popular blockbuster. the film is nominated for best drama and it received acting nods for bradley cooper and lady gaga. it is hard for goodman to be a king. this awards season goodman to be a king. this awards season could be a battle of the blockbusters. black panther and bohemian rhapsody, about the british band queen, also best drama contenders. so what's playing tonight? like the oscars, the golden globes also celebrate the smaller screen. leading the pack is the assassination of joan screen. leading the pack is the assassination ofjoan rivers saatchi -- gianni assassination ofjoan rivers saatchi —— gianni versace. killing if is also nominated. —— eve. the bodyguard received two nominations. they were a surprise to many in hollywood. faddes hope it means a second season is coming soo

at times it's poignant, it's comic and tragic all inspired by dick cheney's life and time in office. bale totally transforming himself and in his words "vice" is a masterpiece. >> it's the hottest film, the controversial story of the most powerful vice president in modern history with an utterly unrecognizable christian bale playing the role of dick cheney. >> the vice president's job is mostly symbolic. >> everybody asked you about the transformation. what did your kids think? >> moo i kids, they don't blink. it's funny. they seem to look in my eyes and, you know, i'm a boy -- i always bald and no eyebrows and big tummy and just loved jumping up and down on my tummy. >> obviously your wife is accustomed to it. >> the bigger i got, the smaller she looks. >> can you feel it, half the room wants to be us, the other half fears us. >> reporter: his on screen wife and driving force behind his political rise is played by amy adams. you and amy had this wonderful chemistry. >> you wouldn't have a dick cheney if you didn't have his wife lynne cheney. he went from having a dui to 11 years lat
