80' - 2004 - Documentary - Format: 35mm - Dialogue: English
“BUSH’S BRAIN” is a documentary that introduces us Karl Rove, the man known as “Bush’s Brain”, the most powerful political figure America has never heard of, the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain of today’s Presidential politics. It is based on the best-selling book BUSH’S BRAIN (Wiley, 2003) by journalists James Moore and Wayne Slater.
Karl Rove is President George W. Bush’s closest adviser. He is a man who has almost single-handedly shaped the policies of our nation. A brilliant tactician, ruthless opponent, savvy policy maker, and one of the greatest political minds in the history of the Republic. The relationship between Karl Rove and President George W. Bush is one of the most unique political marriages in history. Feared and admired by Republicans and Democrats alike, Rove has raised a new and disturbing question for Americans: Who really runs the country? Dubbed “the man with the plan” by “Dubya” himself, Karl Rove boldly conceived and ruthlessly shaped the political career of our current President to a degree never before seen in America. And he continues to be a guiding force within the current Bush White House.
