Description:
The Maysles' documentary delves into the intense competition among four door-to-door salesmen from Mid-American Bible Company: Paul "The Badger" Brennan, Charles "The Gipper" McDevitt, James "The Rabbit" Baker and Raymond "The Bull" Martos. Faced with challenging economic times, these tenacious individuals traverse the rural American landscape in a relentless pursuit to sell gold-leaf Bibles to an indifferent market of lower-middle-class housewives and elderly couples. The film captures the intricate dynamics of camaraderie and rivalry that emerge amidst their hardscrabble existence, offering an intimate window into the complexities of human ambition and persistence in the face of adversity.
