The world according to Bush (Le monde selon Bush) - George W Bush, Colin Powell, Donald Rumsfeld, William Karel
Threat advisory: Under evaluation
Movie propaganda
On 20 January 2001, amid high controversy and with no clear majority, eight years after his father, George W Bush moved into The White House. With the same close-knit circle of advisors, the Bushes, father and son, preside over the fate of the most powerful country on the planet.
The world according to Bush is an explosive film, a journey into the very heart of the power base established by two generations of US Presidents closely tied to the oil industry.
William Karel faces off with Colin Powell and the principal advisors to the President, plus Hans Blix, Javier Pérez de Cuéllar, Norman Mailer and heads of the CIA. In exclusive interviews, the major players of the last decade speak candidly as they reveal the arcane workings of power.
