Raw tape #44 for Vito Marzullo documentary. Rakove transitions. Director Tom Weinberg talks with Milton Rakove, a professor of political science at the University of Illinois-Chicago and author who documented the Chicago political machine under Mayor Richard J. Daley. Weinberg coaxes sound bytes out of Rakove, used as transitions in the documentary’s final cut. They discuss Marzullo’s strengths and weaknesses, his day-to-day operations as part of the “machine” and how the Chicago City Council really governs.
