American Dharma doesn't just recap a dark chapter in the nation's history. It sounds the alarm for the rest of the world.
Though stylistically quite different from the director's The Fog of War: Eleven Lessons from the Life of Robert S. McNamara, it shows the same ability to engage the viewer in American politics through a strategy of detached passion.
On the rare occasions when Morris gets around to challenging Bannon (once every 20 minutes or so), Bannon ducks the question, and that's that.
American Dharma is a frustrating excavation of a man at the height of his narcissism.
Morris for his part tries to corner Breitbart's spokesman by means of stinging questions... leaving a sophisticated and impartial but slightly condescending portrait of Trump's former advisor. [Full Review in Spanish]
Perhaps the most important lesson of American Dharma is that Bannon and his ilk are spoilt children, and like lazy, indifferent parents we have let them run riot. Perhaps it's time for the adults to start acting as such and finally put the kids to bed.
