HBO Hires Martin Scorsese To Make A Documentary About Bill Clinton

Bill Clinton is headed to HBO, according to The Hollywood Reporter and legendary director Martin Scorsese is set to produce and direct a documentary about the former President for the cable network.

The documentary will explore Clinton’s views on “history, politics, culture and the world, both while he was in office and in the years since,” and be produced with Clinton’s full cooperation and support.

Bill Clinton is probably the biggest figure in American history in the 1990′s and not just because he was the President of the United States, but also because of his very inviting personality. Clinton also had tremendous turmoil during his Presidency, dealing with many adultery scandals.

To this very day Clinton is still respected for his outlook on foreign policy and ways to improve our economy by both Democrats and Republicans.

“A towering figure who remains a major voice in world issues, President Clinton continues to shape the political dialogue both here and around the world,” Scorsese said of the project. “Through intimate conversations, I hope to provide greater insight into this transcendent figure.”
