Whether you love George Wallace or hate him, this documentary shows how power or its pursuit, corrupts. The movie shows Henry Wallace's change from his humanistic early state to his inhuman segregationist being and then back again. When he sought power, he said whatever the people of Alabama wanted to hear. When the ability to gain power no longer existed, he reverted back to the sympathetic being that he was early in life. Very worth seeing.
