"When they made this film, they thought Sarah Palin was going to be in the race," Mr. Bannon told the Los Angeles Times, adding there was a conspiracy afoot to "destroy" any of her political prospects.
"The Undefeated" filmmaker Stephen K. Bannon said, "Given the strong audience reaction, we have determined there is overwhelming demand for us to get this film out broadly enough to cover the entire nation in September and October."
