THE DEAN SCREAM

The story of 2004 Democratic presidential candidate Howard Dean and his infamous scream speech after his defeat in the Iowa Caucus. He raised his voice, balled his fist and entered political history as a man whose immoderate speaking style cost him a career. That’s the accepted narrative, at least, of what happened in that year’s presidential race. But the truth is not always what the crowd remembers. In this short film, produced by FiveThirtyEight and ESPN Films and directed by Bryan Storkel, Dean and others who know the race will recall what really happened.
