Boys State
If only I could have gone to one of these when I was younger.
I am a politics junkie. So learning that there was a thing called boys state with mock elections and campaigns was right up my alley.
I think one thing this movie shows perfectly is that politics is a game. Always has been, always will be. It’s a game that can be played any way. Sometimes the most effective way is to play dirty. Honesty and humility (while the most important aspects) can only get you so far.
Much more emotional than I was expecting. I about cried at the end because I connected a lot to Steven. When everyone kept telling him how proud they were of him I almost lost it.
This film is really Important and I think everyone should watch it!
