"Remarkable in just how much you can achieve in a short time and on the lowest of budgets, Wrestling with my Father simply depicts Fairbanks' dad in the audience of a wrestling match (apparently with the filmmaker as one of the wrestlers). Within this extraordinarily simple set-up are whole worlds of humour, pathos and intrigue." - Montreal Mirror -

              A documentary that examines America's policies regarding making war, most recently the Iraq war and what is termed “the Bush doctrine”, which includes pre-emptive strikes. The author suggests that this policy has been in the works for many years, reviewing past wars in the 20th century. A variety of individuals are asked “Why de we fight?” and, predictably, come up with a variety of answers. This is followed by a look at today's U.S. military/industrial complex via interviews with individuals involved in it.

Bill Daniel pulls it off by getting onto those bare wagons with his camera, by traveling with those who load them and the tramps who use them.
