The World According to Dick Cheney: Directed by R.J. Cutler, Greg Finton. With Dick Cheney, Lynne Cheney, Dennis Haysbert, Ron Suskind. A revealing profile of Dick Cheney, one of the world’s most controversial and powerful political figures. Award-winning documentary filmmaker R.J. Cutler gives us a surprisingly personal look into the life of the former Vice President from his early days in Washington to his time in the White House with President George W. Bush.

“First a little background, I consider myself a Republican, but am not hardcore in any sense. I voted for Romney, but also the re-election of the Democratic governor of my state. I donu0026#39;t agree with the extreme views of the Tea Party, but would prefer compromise. I suppose Iu0026#39;m more moderate than anything.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eComing into the movie, I was really hoping for a non-partisan analysis of Cheney. With FOX News and MSNBC, itu0026#39;s really hard to get a source that isnu0026#39;t slanted one way or the other. The way the story unravels (it seemed more like a novel than a history book) tells it in a very fair way: which is what I wanted.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe decisions that Mr. Cheney made over his tenure are worth exploring, as Iu0026#39;m sure he is a smart man and had rationales for his actions. The documentary doesnu0026#39;t go into that much detail, at least not to the degree I was looking for, but I walked away satisfied. If you are wanting a look at Dick Cheney, without the BS clouding the conversation, I wholeheartedly recommend this movie.”
