Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President

2020 NR 1h 36m 7.5

Jimmy Carter's election to the presidency of the United States in 1977 was helped by the links that this fan of pop music had with stars.

This rockumentary-style presidential portrait shows how Jimmy Carter reinvigorated a post-Watergate America-with the music of the counterculture, including the Allman Brothers, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, and Jimmy Buffett. Low on campaign funds and lacking in name recognition, Carter relied on support from these artists to give him a crucial boost in the Democratic primaries. Once Carter was elected, the musicians became frequent guests in the White House.
