The Broomfield Film Will Drop a Bomb on Sarah Palin’s Undefeated
http://www.politicususa.com/en/broomfield-film-bomb-sarah-palin-undefeated

Nick Broomfield is at it again. This time the independent documentarian takes on Sarah Palin.

While Sarah Palin’s image rehab film “The Undefeated” debuts in Iowa tomorrow evening, another Palin film waits in the wings and this one has the potential to drop a bomb on “The Undefeated”.

Derek Malcolm of the Guardian once said of Nick, “If Broomfield took up wedding photography, the divorce rate would be even higher.” This is not the man you want helming a documentary of you if you are hiding under a perilously constructed myth.

Peabody winner Broomfield also holds numerous other prestigious awards, from First Prize at Sundance to a 2006 Bafta Award for his contribution to the documentary genre. If that doesn’t impress you, Broomfield’s filmography includes “Aileen Wuronos: The Selling of a Serial Killer”, “Biggie & Tupac” and “Kurt & Courtney”.

1. If a bomb goes off in an empty theater, does it make a sound?
Except for a handful of opening-day crowds of tea-party faithful, does anyone think that "The Undefeated" is going to have any audience that will be available to be atrtled by an alternative Palin film?

2. I take issue with “Kurt & Courtney”
Pretty much everyone who knew Kurt and Courtney said that movie played very loose with the facts to infer Courtney killed Kurt

However, everyone's allowed a bad day
