This Machine Kills Fascists

Overview

The life of the great American folksinger is detailed in this 160-minute documentary narrated by singer Billy Bragg. Director Stephen Gammond gives us the cradle-to-grave view of Woody Guthrie as told by those who knew him, most memorably his daughter Nora, son Arlo, sister Mary Jo, and peer Pete Seeger. The folksinger's ability to mix politics with song and weave them together melodically is universally praised.
