| Abstract: | Let's Get Frank is the story of one of America's most well loved and outspoken politicians. It's also a hilarious and insightful movie about modern politics, gay life and political hypocrisy. Filmmaker Bart Everly spent 24 months following Representative Barney Frank (D-Mass.), one of the nation's few openly gay politicians. With unlimited access to both his professional and personal life, Everly captured Frank doing what he does best - being frank! From Capitol Hill to Fire Island, Frank's sharp wit, outspoken views and down home understanding of politics have made him popular and respected - on both sides of the political fence. After surviving his own sex scandal, Frank became one of President Clinton's staunchest and most effective defenders. |
