The poster, while only tangentially related to the documentary, is in a classic style that looks fresh and cinematically appropriate. It's a work of art that moves beyond traditional poster design.
There are some intriguing elements to this documentary, but it seems about as biased as a Michael Moore piece, which we know isn't always a bad thing. It's more in the vein of Errol Morris than that of Moore.
So many controversial subjects are at play in this year's race, that it seems unlikely that something as down-to-earth could get recognition, but there are many who probably think they need to scale back the category with a doc like this.
I have not seen this film.
