...oilman and former high aide to President Johnson, told United Steelworkers President l.W. Abel last month not to waste money trying to re-elect Oklahoma Senator Fred Harris.

So: skip the rest of this paragraph if you've never forgiven Fred for telling you that the butler did do it.] The film ends, fades to black, and credits appear: David Holzman is played by L. M. Kit Carson; the filmmaker is Jim McBride. What we thought was documentary was the cruelest of lies, for even here screenplay has been passed off as cinema...
