'The attack on my father really destroyed my faith in humanity,' Alexandra Pelosi said.
The filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi has made 14 documentaries, none more intimate, laborious or destabilizing than her latest. The subject is her mother, Nancy Pelosi.
As with Alexandra Pelosi’s other documentaries, including several that followed Republican leaders and Trump voters, this one was shot vérité style, and, Pelosi emphasized, told only from her vantage point in the moment. A tale of two speeches: Nancy Pelosi and Donald Trump's very different words Comparing the house speaker's 13-minute valedictory speech and the former president's 63-minute reelection address demonstrates why one will be venerated for her historic contributions and the other ridiculed as a failure of democracyHe’s getting better every day. But I don’t know how you ever recover from everything that happened after the attack.
On Jan. 6, as you’re being hustled through a tunnel to a bunker, you know enough as a filmmaker not to stop rolling. But what was going through your mind? I brought my kids; I thought it was a good civics lesson for them. Everybody inside was focused on the events of the day. And my son kept looking out the window and saying, what if they stormed the Capitol?
This is not an authorized documentary. She did not sign a release. I don’t think she’s going to sue her daughter, but she’s not going to be happy. I’m sure she’s going to call me the moment she sees it — my husband [the Dutch journalist Michiel Vos] and I have a game going, of how many things she’s going to have on her list. I would guess a dozen solid “you shouldn’t have included this” and a list of a dozen things [to use] instead.Forever.
