Tanner on Tanner. 2004. USA. Directed by Robert Altman. 109 min.

Teleplay by Garry Trudeau. With Michael Murphy, Cynthia Nixon, Pamela Reed, Aasif Mandvi. This four-part sequel to Tanner ’88 is a satire on documentary filmmaking, shot during the 2004 Democratic National Convention. Now an ambitious filmmaker enjoying privileged status as the daughter of a failed presidential candidate, Alex (Nixon) is forced to choose between her integrity and her father’s political future. Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, Michael Moore, Charlie Rose, and Martin Scorsese all appear as themselves. Courtesy Sandcastle5.
