Nick Broomfield, who’s made documentaries about Kurt Cobain (Kurt and Courtney), Tupac and Biggie (Biggie and Tupac), and Heidi Fleiss (Heidi Fleiss: Hollywood Madam), among others, is sort of a tabloidy, British version of Werner Herzog, and most recently, he turned his God-awful, droning, British stroke victim narration on Sarah Palin, for a new documentary that will be premiering at the Toronto Film Festival, for the no doubt untold millions of Palin supporters present there. There’s a new clip from it after the jump, and the crowd shot you see above comes from a Palin event in Lemoore, California (fun fact: that’s a couple towns over from where I grew up, I used to play basketball there). Between Sarah Palin spouting idiotic talking points (DEATH PANELS! FAT CATS!) and Nick Broomfield’s Kermit the Frog-gargling-oatmeal narration, it seems that the goal here was for no one to watch this ever. Which is really the preferred response to anything Palin-related. Great job, everyone, let’s break for lunch.

I’ll only watch this if they can get a drunk Louie CK to provide running commentary.
The whole no one watching a Sarah Palin documentary has already been done.
“You can’t take a drink of water, wait five seconds then unleash your comeback! That’s why they call it a ‘quip’. Not a slooooop.”
And contrary to popular belief, there was a black person there. I saw her! But she wasn’t clapping and generally just didn’t look very happy to be there, so I won’t rule out kidnapping.
I’d watch it if it detailed how she forgot her kid at a Barnes & Noble book signing (the mentally challenged one, not the one who was getting railed by a Playgirl model in the store bathroom).
And only if it included the (actual quote) “Where’s my ret*rd baby?”
@LTF: I’m pretty sure she was waiting for Palin to finish talking so she could sweep the gymnasium.
Actually, “Where’s My Ret*rd Baby?” should probably be the title of the documentary.
If I wanted to watch a movie about a screeching cunt, I’d pop in my porn of Laurel Canyon getting dry fucked by a 2 liter of Pepsi clear.
Limey sounds like Voldemort
What’s the difference between Sarah Palin and her cunt?
The things that come out of her cunt are only half retarded!
As yo can tell, I’m a huge fan.
I think that guy on stage with Palin is related to James Hetfield . . .
“Number five-ah!”
“I have the last question he-ah!”
“Where’s your retard baby-ah!”
Okay, I might have imagined one of those.
A 2 liter of Pepsi Clear? That’s gross. Everyone knows for a dry fuck you go with Canada Dry ginger ale. It’s even got “dry” in the name, c’mon people.
Hey! I totally Palined that joke!
@Crapbasket: What? You quit in the middle of it, viciously attacked anyone who pointed out the fact that you quit, vaguely encouraged the shooting of Democratic Congresspeople, then took a comfy studio talking-head job while systematically doing something that might hint at a possibility of running for an office that might be President just so the media wouldn’t forget about you then you can complain in said talking-head job about said media-attention?
Oh, you did all that? Then yeah, you totally Palin’d it.
Of Broomfield’s other films, two subjects were shot dead and one was a repugnant whore who went to jail. I like this trend.
You’re right astTex, I Bristol’d it. That joke should have been aborted.
That baby in the audience shot was texting the entire time! Someone oughtta tap it on the shoulder, send that kid home in an ambulance!
I honestly do not understand why this woman will not go away. She needs to see a death panel.
My bad. It was holding sunglasses. The suggestion still stands
I tried to watch the trailer, but in Palin’s honor, I quit halfway through.
Unfortunately there are some Palin supporters in Canada. She spoke at an event in Hamilton (outside Toronto) and people paid a lot of money, and I’m assuming not ironically, for autographs and pictures with her.

Yeah, but were they at an indie film festival?
Dude, epic win on the Photoshop banner. A dozen Bristol Palin fan fiction site memberships for your trouble, good sir!
Yeah, I guess I completely fucked that up. Sorry, bro. I doubt that there will be many/any of the type of people that support Sarah Palin there, unless they’re picketing outside Lars Von Trier’s new movie.
Wait, what? Lemoore’s my hometown. You from Hanford or Visalia or some shit? Sarah Palin and Lemoore are a match made in heaven/hell.
Reedley. My dad lived in Visalia until a year or so ago.
