I am a big Jerry Springer fan.
I noticed on youtube that Jerry Springer is releasing a few movie. It is called “And The Winner Is …”
It seems to be mocking politics (didn’t he used to be Mayor of St. Louis?)
There are several great trailers on youtube
Thanks,
Jen
I was googling to see if I could find anymore information on this film and stumbled on this link. Jerry Springer is incredible. I actually saw the film “And The Winner Is…” at the Palm Beach Film Festival. It was hysterical! Jerry did a incredible job! I’m not sure why I haven’t seen more on this film. Why isn’t the media picking up this story? It’s too funny in comparing the worlds of politics and pageantry.
