The Brink

This is ok but if you're interested in Bannon as a subject American Dharma is a much better film.

This documentary portrayed a very likeable guy in Steve Bannon. Obviously it's biased as much as it can because the film maker is a globalist sympathiser. It's clear Bannon works really hard to try and combat the globalists but it's obviously an uphill struggle because they have their claws all over the media, academia and social policy currently. As they say, they don't have 10's of billions to play like the far left enjoy from people like George Soros. The media fights dirty, they even made the claim that the word globalist is anti-semitic, although that did come from The Guardian, which is conspiracy theory central these days. It's rather like how they have no arguments so they just call everything racist! Great people like Bannon are trying their best and thankfully there are people like him around trying to make the world a better place.

Production and reporting were mediocre. There were so many photos used to to tell stories rather than presenting or engaging in a discussion about nationalism.

I was wondering why Mr. Bannon would agree to make such unflattering film. Then I realized that there is no bad publicity to him as well as to our sitting president.

Bannon's relentless propaganda wars against main stream media deserved some credits. He had some pivotal contributions to the most political upset in American history after all. Nevertheless, he should have stopped there before everything crumbled and fell apart in front of him. Yet, his eager to be seen and hungry for power would take him to a far different journey. I don't see there is a future for his so called populist and against establishments to be flourish. The pandemic has changed political situations at least partially if not entirely.

We as citizens are looking for leadership in crisis which Trump's administration hardly provided. No conspiracies or propaganda could replace truths and no compensations could ease loosing lives. Bannon was looking for spotlights to shamelessly claim his ideology for working people. He had no practical strategies or plans for anything to go forward besides repeatably mentioning he rallying people to come together against establishments.

There might not be anything new in this movie. However, it reminds me the ridiculous and idiotic conspiracy would always have place in our society. We need to exercise our fundamental right to vote them out our political arena so they have no place to shout.

I think Ms Klayman did a triffic job on this documentary. I look forward to her future work. She let the subject speak for himself - in all his abhorrent, idiotic glory. It's scary to see, but we all need to understand how insidious Bannon and his ilk are.
