Alexandra Pelosi has filmed her mom at work as the Democratic leader and House Speaker for three decades. “I didn’t make this movie for Washington,” she tells VF.
You can watch in the very beginning when I'm filming her and I'm trying to get her to talk to me and she's like, ‘I'm a workhorse, not a show horse.’ If you want to get to know Nancy Pelosi, you just have to watch her work. I try sometimes to ask her questions, but she doesn't stop what she's doing and turn to me and say, let me just tell you how I'm feeling in this moment, because that's not who she is.
In the movie, there’s that moment where you say to your mom, “You’re always on message, there’s no cracking you.” I feel like that’s a commonly held feeling toward politicians. I grew up two steps behind Nancy Pelosi, so I see how people behave in front of her and then I get to hear everything they say behind her back. So I get it. I'm a human who lives in the world, but she's a human who lives in the world, too. I think some people don't see that. She's not a cartoon character. People think politicians are these sort of...they don't understand that that's who they are in their soul.
