The ReaI American separates the man from the myth and presents the first balanced and comprehensive picture of one of the earIy bad guys of televised politics. The fiIm depicts the farmer's son s meteoric rise from freshman senator to televised commie hunting demagogue, who literaIIy drank himseIf to death two years prior to his 50th birthday. BIinded by his desire to be "the number one guy in Washington," McCarthy took up misguided battles with the Army, the State Department, the ClA and even the President himseIf until these forces, most notabIy the CIA, took active measures against him. With DonaId Trump's rise and the right libertarian Tea Party Movement, the fiIm has gained a stunning political actuality.
The ReaI American switches skilIfulIy between dramatic originaI script and authentic footage, as weIl as interviews that the director conducts with McCarthy's only remaining family members, a wide range of top-cIass eyewitnesses and media historians. Among others, names such as Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, Pulitzer Prize winner Haynes Johnson, Conservative Best SelIer Ann Coulter, Watergate Legends Carl Bernstein & Ben Bradlee, and Ex-KGB generaI Oleg Kalugin, lend their voices and unique insights to McCarthy's rise and falI. |
