Documentary

Documentarian Albert Nerenberg examines the persistence of stupidity throughout human history. The origins of the dunce cap and the word "moron" are explained, while prominent figures from Noam Chomsky to John Cleese share their thoughts on the subject. Narrating the film himself, Nerenberg argues that many people deliberately present themselves as stupid because society at large prefers them that way, focusing especially on President George W. Bush.
