PhotoFor such a cerebral documentary, “The New Radical” packs a wicked punch. Interviews with Mr. Wilson show him to be both astute and confounding, sometimes sounding like a cautious bookworm, other times like an undergrad drunk on Ayn Rand novels; he disdains corporate influence in politics, yet admires the alt-right movement. Like Mr. Wilson, Mr. Taaki has brazen ideas about revolution. Though it would have been valuable to see Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taaki challenged on their opinions, Adam Bhala Lough, the director, allows the men to make uncontested cases for their extremist and sometimes militant stances. It’s possible to fully, and vehemently, disagree with Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taaki yet still see their points.
