Weiner, 2016 - ★★★★½

You can also find this review on Letterboxd

This documentary was so good. Not only because it takes a look behind the scenes of American elections, not only as a view into how it feels to be the main attention of journalists during a scandal, but also because let's be real here, Anthony Weiner still manages to come out of this documentary about his scandals as kind of a likeable guy.

"Why are you letting us film this?" is probably the greatest thing a documentarian has ever asked their focus point. And Weiner doesn't even answer.

It's just a great documentary, a sure watch for anyone. 4.5 out of 5 stars.
