Review

alexandra pelosi’s hbo documentary looks at evangelicals and their beliefs and their influence in politics. it has some interesting stuff in part because she doesn’t grill the interviewees. she did the same in her travels with bush documentary. it’s a testament to the power of a simple question without the foreboding element that comes when the interviewer is clearly on the offensive. it’s a short film that lacks structure (and an ending), but it’s good nonetheless.
