The Film John Kerry Refuses to See, Now one of the most Downloaded Docs of all Time

More than fourty five thousand people have downloaded clips from the as of yet unreleased film about John Kerry's 2004 Political Campaign. Internet movie site iFilm says this makes the Kerry doc one of the top 10 most downloaded documentaries of all times.

New York (PRWEB) October 21, 2005 -- John Kerry has said he refuses to watch the film documenting his 2004 failed bid for the White House, but clips from the critically acclaimed movie are red hot among Internet viewers.

The Internet movie service iFilm reports that scenes from "Inside The Bubble" - the unreleased Kerry documentary - has been downloaded 45,625 times* -- making it one of the top ten most downloaded documentaries of all time.

"We started showing clips from the film only ten days ago and now 'Inside The Bubble'… is ranking as one of iFILM's top 5 documentaries of all time" said iFilm's Vice President of Content Roger Jackson.

According to iFilm, the unreleased doc has already bested OutFoxed, Enron, and Going Upriver, and continues to climb.

Says iFilm's Jackson: "There is an element of schadenfreude about it- the trials and missteps during the '04 Kerry Campaign, is similar to watching a particularly entertaining car wreck, and has captured attention nearly a year after the election."

Film Director Steven Rosenbaum says the intense demand on the Internet points to a larger story: "We have always known that the Internet is a terrific place to engage in political discussion and debate, but the response to the film tells us the American public clearly has unresolved issues about 2004 - and the documentary touches that nerve."

"Inside the Bubble is great example of how a compelling documentary film can gain traction with an audience via the Internet" says Jackson.

"The election of '04 dramatic material- and "Inside The Bubble" is a ride audiences never forget" said Rosenbaum. "The characters, the pressure, and the missteps are all amazing fodder for a documentary filmmaker. In large part because of the unusual access we were afforded, viewers get to see the campaign from the inside out."
