Campaign: The Making of a Candidate is a fascinating dive into the nitty-gritty of political campaigning. It follows David Miller, a Toronto mayoral hopeful, during the 2003 municipal election. The film has this raw, almost gritty feel, capturing the intensity and unpredictability of the political landscape. You see the stresses of running a campaign, the back-and-forth of public perception, and the realities of political promises. It’s not just about speeches; it’s about the human element, the small victories, and the crushing defeats. The pacing is reflective, allowing you to really absorb the atmosphere of an electoral race, which is a rarity in political docs. Definitely a unique perspective on local politics in Canada at that time.
