The strange history of the now abandoned American 1993-bill, «Don't ask, don't tell» where sexual orientation was a "non-talk" policy in the American forces, leading to 13.368 getting kicked out before 2011.
Editing
Savage juxtaposition of 'support the troops' rhetoric with actual troop dismissal records.
Writing
Gore Vidal's withering commentary delivered like he's bored by the stupidity.
Director
Fenton Bailey
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Bailey and Barbato were already HBO veterans from 'Party Monster' and 'The Eyes of Tammy Faye,' bringing tabloid energy to policy docs.
The 13,368 figure was deliberately underreported for years; this film helped push for full data release before repeal.
