From IMDB:

A drama based on a Texas congressman Charlie Wilson’s covert dealings in Afghanistan, where his efforts to assist rebels in their war with the Soviets have some unforeseen and long-reaching effects.

From Netflix you can stream this 1 hour 41 minute complete film starring Tom Hanks.

Based on true history, not only is this about helping the fight against the Soviets, but it ends with criticizing the U.S. for its habit of entering a country to fight an enemy but then abandoning that same country afterwards.

Charlie Wilson was a bit of a libertine, so expect some nudity, sexual content, and drug use.  But all told, it is an inspiring story of a capable politician.
