Barry Goldwater was a rare breed of politician — one who stuck to his ideals and refused to pander to special interest groups, including his own party. Tracing Goldwater from his earthy Senatorial beginnings to his notorious presidential loss to LBJ to his outspoken later years, filmmaker Julie Anderson assembles a marvelous ensemble to dissect the singular Renaissance man, from Hillary Clinton and Al Franken to George Will and John McCain. What emerges is a compelling homage to a self-reliant giant and a bygone era in American politics.
