CNN Films Acquires Doc ‘Carville: Winning Is Everything, Stupid’ On James Carville’s Efforts To Get Biden To Drop Pursuit Of Re-election
James Carville documentary ‘Carville: Winning Is Everything, Stupid’ has been acquired by CNN Films for release this fall, Deadline can confirm.
Carville marks CNN Films’ third acquisition this year, following Luther: Never Too Much and the anticipated Super/Man: The Christopher Reeve Story, which the company jointly sought out with DC Studios, Warner Bros. Motion Pictures, HBO, and Max. Carville, famously known for coining the phrase “It’s the economy, stupid” during Bill Clinton’s 1992 campaign, is portrayed not only in his political element, but also in his personal life — spending time at his New Orleans home with his wife, Republican strategist Mary Matalin, and traveling across the nation. Carville’s biography is intercut with his present-day efforts to shape the Democratic Party landscape as an early evangelist to get President Biden to forgo seeking re-election – a move that put him at odds with the very establishment he helped build.
