The war room [videorecording] / Janus Films ; Pennebaker Associates Inc. and McEttinger Films present ; by Chris Hegedus, D.A. Pennebaker ; producers, R.J. Cutler, Wendy Ettinger, Frazer Pennebaker ; associate producer, Cyclone Films.
In The return of the War room James Carville, George Stphanopoulos, Mary Matalin, Frank Luntz, Mark McKinnon and others reflect on thee 1992 presidential campaign, its lasting effects, and the "war room" campaign concept.(1 hr., 22 min.).
The 1992 presidential election was a triumph not only for Bill Clinton but also for the new breed of strategists who guided him to the White House and changed the face of politics in the process. For this thrilling, behind-closed-doors account of that campaign, the filmmakers closely followed the brainstorming and bull sessions of Clinton's crack team of consultants. Fleet-footed and entertaining, this is a vivid document of a political moment whose truths still ring in our ears.
