 Great documentary about Republicans in Hollywood! September 2, 2009
T. Ross (Los Angeles, CA)
The filmmaker, Jesse Moss, did a great job with this film. Although he is a Democrat, he really took a "fair and balanced" perspective. The best part was Patricia Heaton's story about her dinner with the producers. Hilarious!

I Tivo'd this off the AMC channel mostly because I've imagined that being a Republican in Hollywood has got to be awkward. I've always wondered at how famous Hollywood personalities often feel compelled to try and make very liberal views seem mainstream, while suggesting conservative views are wacko. Ben Stein pretty much said this during this documentary.
I especially liked the five minutes of time respectfully given to the Act One group of screenwriters that hold to Christian views. Barbara Nicolosi and Dean Batali were featured in that segment, talking about how they can bring hope and uplifting messages to television and film.
Patricia Heaton relates how she was at a party and everyone was bashing the president. She finally piped up and said that she liked Bush and that both she and her husband voted for him. Speaking of the aghast looks she got, she says "It was like I crapped on the table or something."
Imagine my surprise when the writer/director of this documentary, Jesse Moss, stated that he was a democrat who disagreed with the viewpoints of those he interviewed, but found that he generally liked the folks he interviewed (Drew Carey, Patricia Heaton, Ben Stein, John Milius, etc.).
Finally, a Hollywood documentary worthy of being called Fair and Balanced.

This remains one of the better and, fittingly, more entertaining political documentaries around. Moss investigates Hollywood's Republican counterculture with respect and aplomb without playing partisan favorites.
Note: the scathing user reviews here seem to be written by people who have not actually watched the film.

Since I'm biased, I wont offer a review, but I will point out that TV critics around the country have described the film as "entertaining" (Miami Herald), "fair and balanced" (Seattle Post Intelligencer), "well mannered" (New York Post) and "an interesting, honest documentary" (New York Sun).
 Why oh Why Do Liberals keep doing this. October 15, 2005

Why does our childrens political views have to agree with "Liberal Hollywood". I think that children have the right agree with any party Republican or Democrat. We should not be forced to agree with the "Hollywood Liberal Snob Democrats" I don't have to agree with Sen. Boxer or "Teddy". Why do you make it seem that the republicans always are at fault. That is not true. Make a movie about Truth and not about Lies.
