Michael is co-director and
producer of BUSH’S BRAIN. The film
that pulled back the curtain and introduced the country to Karl Rove,
the “man behind the throne” of the Bush administration.
Made independently for less than 100,000 dollars cash, BUSH’S
BRAIN showed voters how one man, ruthlessly brilliant, has managed
to commandeer the American political process. Michael previously wrote
and directed the indy feature DRIVEN. DRIVEN premiered at the Toronto
Film Festival where Screen International Magazine called him “one
of the new directors to watch in North America.”
