    Palin documentary ‘The Undefeated’ set for video on demand release this weekend

    By Matthew Boyle - The Daily Caller | The Daily Caller – Fri, Sep 2, 2011

    ‘The Undefeated’ will be released this weekend nationwide via video on demand through most cable and satellite services. The documentary highlights the political rise of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

    At an early screening of the documentary, filmmaker Stephen Bannon told The Daily Caller that “The Undefeated” shows Palin “is no Caribou Barbie.” The film focuses on Palin’s executive experience as Alaska’s governor, as the mayor of Wasilla and as the head of Alaska’s Oil and Gas Conservation Commission.

    Film distributor ARC Entertainment and production company Victory Film Group announced the documentary will be available via on-demand services on DIRECTV, DISH Network, Comcast, COX Charter and Time Warner Cable. The film first went public in select theaters on July 15.

    The release coincides with tea party rallies in Iowa and New Hampshire over the holiday weekend. Palin is expected to be at the Iowa rally on Saturday, then she’s headed to New Hampshire.

    Many political strategists and media figures speculate that Palin will announce whether or not she’s running for president over the weekend.

    The film’s release is a bit untraditional, but ARC Entertainment CEO Trevor Drinkwater says that’s because the company is trying to get it out as quickly as possible while it’s still politically hot. (RELATED: Palin to speak in Seoul at World Knowledge Forum)

    “Since the film opened in select markets across the country on July 15th we have been inundated with requests from people wanting the film to be made available in their market,” Drinkwater said in a statement.

    “A traditional windowed release would not have allowed us to maximize viewership of this highly sought after film,” producer Glenn Bracken Evans added.

    The film walks viewers through Palin’s early life and political career, using audio of Palin from when she did a book on tape version of “Going Rogue.” Bannon said that he didn’t do any interviews with the former governor in the film because he wanted to tell her story through the people who knew her best.

    The documentary includes interviews with political commentators Tammy Bruce, Andrew Breitbart and Mark Levin, and with conservative activists Jamie Radtke, Kate Obenshain and Sonnie Johnson. Key figures from Palin’s time in Alaska also appear in the film.

      I am watching it right now! It is put together in an authentic way but the facts of the film remain indisputable. Anyone can watch it and see that this lady is incredible. It puts an end to the "she's a quitter" mantra. It puts an end to the "she's stupid" mantra.

      You do not have to be a far right winger to comprehend it. You have to be objective. You cannot be a far lefty though who goes into it. They only confirm what the film displays and proves.

      Watch it with your friends and family. Even IF you don't support Sarah Palin, it is important to understand what the media and others can do to ANY good candidate.

        Yes, she is incredible and deserves to be President more than any other. She is just what we need now. Ronald Reagan would be proud as well as Washington and Lincoln. Sarah is a warrior for truth and the American way!
