Feed


Released in 1992, Feed was a documentary that followed the New Hampshire primaries and captured what happens right before the politicians would go "on air". The film had many different subjects, and this list of subjects included Bill Clinton. This film was directed by Kevin Rafferty and James Ridgeway. The angle that the film took was one of comedy and the comedic things that politicians really do go through and do right before they go on the air. The prepping that is done for them is ridiculous and really makes people see the candidates for who they are before they are coached on what to say or are made up to look how the cameras want to portray them. Much of the film is composed of raw satellite feed from major television networks which was not intended for the public viewing.
