Many people remember Marion Barry as the philandering drug-addled mayor of the nation's capital. He's the poster boy for corruption, a pariah. Yet to others, Marion Barry is a folk hero who has dominated Washington D.C. city politics for over 40 years. Today, Barry is once again in the political limelight. Who is Marion Barry, really? A hero? A scoundrel? (imdb)

Intriguing documentary about American history and American politics. As a bonus there's a great deal of (unintentional?) humor. Another example of how a man who appears to be a hero can wind up proving himself to be a total fuckhead. Testing positive for cocaine at the ripe old age of 69 guarantees that I'll never listen to a single word that ever comes out of his mouth
