SPIN ~ Documentary by Brain Springer

Brian Springer - Spin



Using the 1992 presidential election as his springboard,
documentary filmmaker Brian Springer captures the behind-the-scenes maneuverings
 of politicians and newscasters in the early 1990s.

Pat Robertson banters about "homos,"
Al Gore learns how to avoid abortion questions,
George Bush talks to Larry King about halcyon -
- all presuming they're off camera.

Composed of 100% unauthorized satellite footage,
Spin is a surreal expose of media-constructed reality.

You know it would be so fun, if not so sad. Anyway, great examples of "spin!"
