Dealing with Public Opinion

About This Movie

So, 'Dealing with Public Opinion' is a documentary from '87 that feels a bit like a time capsule. You can sense the tension of the era, dealing with critical social issues. The pacing is kind of uneven; it ebbs and flows with the interviews and street footage, which gives it this raw, almost gritty vibe. There's no glossy polish here, just real people sharing their thoughts. The practical effects are non-existent, obviously, but the performances—if you can call them that—are genuine, and that’s what makes it distinctive. It’s all about how public perception shapes reality. Definitely not your typical doc, and there's something to appreciate in its honesty and the way it captures the zeitgeist of the late '80s.
