Reagan is a 2011 film, written & directed by Eugene Jarecki, covering the presidency of Ronald Reagan.

Synopsis

Issu d'un milieu modeste, Ronald Reagan incarne le «rêve américain» : son charisme lui ouvre bien des portes, à commencer par celles d'Hollywood, où il commence sa carrière d'acteur et de syndicaliste, avant de se convertir à l'anticommunisme et de se hisser jusqu'à la Maison-Blanche. En forgeant un conservatisme moderne, qu'il a popularisé auprès des masses, il laisse un héritage politique et idéologique colossal, ainsi qu'une image contradictoire. Pour bien des Américains, leur patrie reste d'ailleurs aujourd'hui le «pays de Reagan»

Réalisé pour la BBC d'après le document à charge du journaliste anglais Christopher Hitchens Les Crimes de M. Kissinger (publié en France en 2001 chez Saint-Simon), le documentaire d'Eugene Jarecki et Alex Gibney soutient que le lauréat du prix Nobel de la paix doit être tenu pour responsable du maintien des forces américaines au Vietnam après 1968, de l'invasion du Cambodge, du coup d'Etat qui renverse le président chilien Salvador Allende en 1973 et des massacres au Timor-Oriental. Mais pour les deux réalisateurs l'ancien secrétaire d'Etat de Richard Nixon et Gerald Ford n'est pas seulement un politicien cynique prêt à tout pour conquérir puis conserver le pouvoir. Ils affirment que Kissinger est un authentique criminel de guerre. Mais ils se contentent pour cela de clamer la pertinence de l'ouvrage de Christopher Hitchens - le plus souvent avec de longues interventions du journaliste - sans se donner les moyens d'étayer leur thèse.

Why We Fight describes the rise and maintenance of the United States military–industrial complex and its 50-year involvement with the wars led by the United States to date, especially its 2003 Invasion of Iraq. The documentary asserts that in every decade since World War II, the American public was misled so that the government (incumbent Administration) could take them to war and fuel the military-industrial economy maintaining American political dominance in the world. Interviewed about this matter are politician John McCain, political scientist and former CIA analyst Chalmers Johnson, politician Richard Perle, neoconservative commentator William Kristol, writer Gore Vidal, and public policy expert Joseph Cirincione.

Le journaliste Jean Dominique, militant avec sa femme Michèle Montas pour une information accessible par Radio Haïti-Inter en Haïti, relate différents épisodes de sa lutte. Le récit direct et honnête qu’il fait, à partir de 1986 à son ami Jonathan Demme et le tournage dans le pays, montrent toute la sympathie et la solidarité que réserve le peuple haïtien à ceux qui prennent réellement son parti, en même temps que le caractère périlleux de la promotion de l’information libre dans le pays. Combattant et exilé, celui qui se faisait appeler l’agronome, en fonction de sa formation de base, n’a jamais interrompu sa lutte jusqu’à son assassinat en 2000.

Michael Moore begins by introducing himself and his family through 8 mm archival home movies; he describes himself as the Irish American Catholic middle-class son of a General Motors employee assembling AC spark plugs. Moore chronicles how GM had previously defined his childhood in Flint, Michigan, and how the company was the primary economic and social hub of the town. He points out that Flint is the place where the Flint Sit-Down Strike occurred, resulting in the birth of the United Auto Workers. He reveals that his heroes were the Flint natives who had escaped the oppressive life in GM's factories, including "Flint's most famous native son," game show host Bob Eubanks.
