Hillary Clinton gives an unvarnished view of her 2016 Democratic presidential primary opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in a Hulu documentary airing in March, according to The Hollywood Reporter .

He was in Congress for years, she says of Sanders in the documentary, per an interview with THR published Tuesday. He had one senator support him. Nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him, he got nothing done. He was a career politician. Its all just baloney and I feel so bad that people got sucked into it.

The documentary is set to premiere this weekend at the Sundance Film Festival , before streaming on Hulu starting March 6.

When THR asked Clinton whether her criticism still stands, Clinton said, Yes, it does.

Sanders, now one of the 2020 Democratic presidential front-runners, on Tuesday declined to directly respond to Clintons remarks.

My focus today is on a monumental moment in American history: the impeachment trial of Donald Trump , he said in a statement. Together, we are going to go forward and defeat the most dangerous president in American history.

In the interview, Clinton declined to say whether she would endorse and campaign for Sanders if he were to become the nominee. Instead, she went on to criticize the culture around him, including the sexist verbal attacks that his supporters, often referred to as Bernie Bros, have launched on social media in the past. Sanders condemned their comments at the time.

She also took aim at Sanders allegedly telling Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) during a 2018 meeting that he didnt believe a woman could defeat President Donald Trump in 2020 . Sanders has denied the exchange ever happened.

Well, number one, I think [that sentiment] is untrue, which we should all say loudly. I mean, I did get more votes both in the primary, by about 4 million, and in the general election, by about 3 million, Clinton said, calling the alleged comments a very personal attack on [Warren].
