Thoroughly enjoyed this documentary that looks beyond the politics into the lives of the presidents he photographed. A timely story of hope, character and the urgency of truth. I give this documentary a 10 (inspiring) out of 10 {Documentary}
A picture is truly worth a thousand words. I cried for most of it, watching history unfold one frame at a time. The kindness, empathy and concern for others, the hope for a better future, sharing others pain during their toughest times in their lives was incredibly touching. A great reminder that those we vote into office can single handedly make or break a nation's future.

It's nice to revisit the days of "Presidential". Thank you Pete for sharing your gift.
This documentary showed us what a REAL President acts like. Both Obama and Reagan both BEHAVED like someone the country could be proud of. Extreme contrast on what we have today in the WH. Made me sad to think of what we used to have compared to the disaster we have now.
This documentary takes you in an intimate journey of the 8 years of Obama's presidency, not from a heavily political point of view but more about the human emotions that a true leader requires. Souza soon realized how different the current President reacts to similar situations and he becomes more vocal and automatically an Instagram sensation. A must watch documentary to deeply understand what it really takes to fill the job of President of USA and surprisingly it doesn't have to do with politics or tactics but kindness and empathy.
