Essential viewing

Warning: Spoilers
I always wondered what it's like in the lives of Trump allies, and this film gives the answer to one of them. It teaches you more than you would learn from Trump himself, about how difficult he can be, even at points empathizing with the key characters - Stone and the film's director himself. It is a peek into the people who believe reality is something to be challenged, and it's fascinating to see them try. The anger near the end is truly felt as the man who played the Jiminy Cricket of the former President's life is suddenly kept out of the occasion he has worked for the most. Essential viewing for all.

Rare inside view into January 6 and the minds of Trump's orbit
galaxyge9 October 2023
The documentation provides a rare inside view into January 6 and the mind of a central member of Trump's orbit - Roger Stone, a 40-year long supporter and enabler of Trump(ism).

Stone allowed the director to get a close inside view of his activities, and his thinking up to and during the events of January 6, 2021.

A portrait of narcicism and vanity.

The director includes part of his personal efforts and health issues during the making, which is understandable due to the obvious relation to his work.

At the screening in Zurich's ZFF the viewers were stunned over most part of the movie, leaving one shocked and amazed.

Brilliant!
