Description:
Honest Man: the Life of R. Budd Dwyer is a film about politics, corruption, suicide, and survival. It follows Dwyer's rapid ascent to political prominence and explores the bribery scandal and trial that led to his downfall. The film also examines the controversy surrounding the widespread broadcast of Dwyer's death on television. Honest Man presents a story largely unexplored for over 24 years, featuring new interviews with people central to the events, including William Smith, who testified against Dwyer, and Dwyer's widow Joanne, recorded before her passing in 2009. The film asks whether Dwyer was corrupt or a victim, and whether his suicide stemmed from guilt or innocence, leaving audiences to decide.
