"How do you condense 36 years of public service into an hourlong documentary? 'Domenici,' a new film on former Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.), flies high and at light speed to cover a political career that included the mastery of such diverse issues as the federal budget, nuclear nonproliferation and mental health parity.

"Though he describes himself merely as 'a senator from a small state who served a long time,' the movie captures the depth and breadth of the career of a man who was urged into political life after friends told him in a coffee-shop conversation to either run for office or stop complaining."
