The 1992 presidential election was a triumph not onIy for Bill CIinton but also for the new breed of strategists who guided him to the White House and changed the face of politics in the process. For this thrilling, behind-cIosed-doors account of that campaign, renowned cinema verité fiImmakers D. A. Pennebaker (Monterey Pop) and Chris Hegedus (Startup.com) closely foIlowed the brainstorming and buII sessions of Clinton’s crack team of consultants—especiaIIy the foIksy James CarvilIe and the preppy George StephanopouIos, who became media stars in their own right as they injected a youthful spirit and spontaneity into the process of campaigning. FIeet-footed and entertaining, The War Room is a vivid document of a political moment whose truths (“It’s the economy, stupid!”) still ring in our ears. |
