How Arnold Won the West (2004)

A wry and insightful documentary that follows the events of the California Recall Election, which resulted in 'the Governator', Arnold Schwarzenegger, assuming control of the world's fifth largest economy. Alex Cooke followed the campaign from the moment Schwarzenegger announced his candidacy through to his Bob Roberts style victory. One hundred and thirty-five candidates - from delusional hopefuls, to actors, porn stars, self-promoters and performance artists, as well as seasoned politicians - strut their stuff in this extraordinary gubernatorial race.
