IMHO, Gene Hackman has been in a number of films with "interesting" plots.
If you are a movie buff, have the time, read through the wiki articles about the Hackman films below ... and consider:
If control over the MSM (film, entertainment and documentary, television, to include all programming, commercials, news broadcasts, newspapers, magazines, radio, book publishing, to include elementary, high school and college text books, fiction and non-fiction books, internet platforms, i.e. Facebook, twitter, etc. etc.) is 95% controlled by [competing criminally controlled] corporate conglomerates - whose ultimate battlefield is not competing directly with each other for customers, but for national political control through dominating access to information... if that Goliath is your opponent... just how might you prepare the information battle space when you have free access to just 5% of the resources. And that is just the domestic U.S. battle space... in short, Dorthy, I don't think we are in Kansas anymore.
Read the plot lines... watching the movies is much better, but reading the plot lines will do for now.

Hackman's character Brill in Enemy Of The State has these great lines.... but be sure to pay attention to what is going on in "background". The question is not so much who Q is, but when is Q.
ENEMY OF THE STATE (1998)
DVD / Chapter 22 - 1:39:32 -> 1:41:03
"If they are big and you are small,
You are mobile and they are not.
You only fight the battles you can win.
That's the way the Viet Cong did it.
You capture their weapons and then
Use them against them the next time.
That way they are supplying you.
You grow strong as they grow weak."
And the camera pans from left to right
In neon lights in the background...
Dark -> Light / Dark -> Light
What a coincidence.

Can't resist this little tidbit from Hackman's wiki page:
"In 1968 Gene Hackman appeared in an episode of I Spy, in the role of "Hunter"...
