Mr. Who?

I got a kick out of this description of a movie that's playing at USC, or at least they're having a screening at USC. It's called Mr. Conservative:

This 90-minute profile of Barry Goldwater details his rise from local Arizona businessman to hugely influential U.S. senator with a 30-year career that crescendoed in an ill-fated 1964 run for president. Mr. Conservative: Goldwater on Goldwater follows that tumultuous year, as well as others in a career that encompassed numerous political and ideological triumphs. Though he never achieved the ultimate prize, Goldwater saw the conservative agenda he had long championed vindicated with the election of Ronald Reagan in 1980.

At the height of his power, Goldwater was the symbol of conservatism, denouncing liberals and Communists while advocating limited government, free enterprise, separation of church and state, and a strong defense. But because of his unequivocal opinions, Goldwater was vulnerable to attacks that labeled him pro-war and anti-civil rights. Those perceptions, coupled with John F. Kennedy's death a year before the election, undermined Goldwater's presidential hopes, though he remained a strong and influential Senate voice for 23 more years.

Mr. Conservative: Goldwater on Goldwater includes interviews with Senators Edward Kennedy, Hillary Rodham Clinton (a onetime "Goldwater Girl") and John McCain; former TV anchorman Walter Cronkite; humorist Al Franken; reporter Helen Thomas; political consultant James Carville; Goldwater's family; and others.

Okay, so let's look at that list of interviews: Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Walter Cronkite, Al Franken, Helen Thomas, James Carville...do I see a pattern here? Why are the featured interviews about "Mr. Conservative" all bitterly partisan liberals? McCain gets thrown in there because he succeeded Goldwater and, of course, you have to have interviews with the fam, but everyone else is...ahem, not conservative in the slightest. Curious documentary, this. If I had an ounce of energy to do so, I might be able to turn up some further info on who made this, whether there are interviews with other people besides those mentioned, blah blah blah. I don't so let's just throw our hands up in horror at this utterly biased portrayal of the man.
