About
In this adaptation of the best-selling roman à clef about Bill Clinton's 1992 run for the White House, the young and gifted Henry Burton is tapped to oversee the presidential campaign of Governor Jack Stanton. Burton is pulled into the politician's colorful world and looks on as Stanton -- who has a wandering eye that could be his downfall -- contends with his ambitious wife, Susan, and an outspoken adviser, Richard Jemmons.
Can a brilliant strategist maintain his moral compass while managing a charismatic candidate with a legendary appetite for scandal? This sharp political satire strips away the dignity of the campaign trail to reveal the messy, human impulses driving the race for the presidency.
