ROOFTOP'S FAVORITE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE
- SPARROW -
TO APPEAR LIVE AT ROOFTOP ON JULY 25

Filed under: Comedy, Documentary, Political Films, Rooftop Filmmakers, Sparrow, Watch Short Films

On July 4, America's holiest of days, a day of patriotism and political awareness, celebrated by setting off fake bombs and drinking enough beer to ruin a lesser nation, one man towered above the thick and rowdy crowd at Rooftop Films, and gloriously announced his 5th successive run for President (that is, every election since 1992). The much-heralded campaign was met first with disbelief, then astonishment, then wild laughter.

Which is good. Because Sparrow doesn't want you to vote for him. He wants you to revolt!

Sparrow is a poet, a politician, a plebe. He writes bumper stickers ("I'm crazy and I vote!) and does silly dances. He runs for office because he's sick of the destructive, narrow-minded, anti-intellectual culture in government, and he thinks if the President is going to be a kooky wild man, he might as well be funny, too.

On Friday, July 25, Sparrow will appear live at Rooftop Films to make an astonishing stump speech. You'll be seeing a lot of Sparrow at Rooftop Films and IFC this election season. And if things go badly enough, he might even get a few votes.
