An idealistic press secretary for a presidential candidate gets a crash course on dirty politics in this morality tale. Brilliantly written and executed with a stellar cast makes this film utterly enjoyable. Based on the play "Farragut North," by Beau Willimon, Clooney and co-writer and producer Grant Heslov deliver one of the best films about the machinery of politics where idealism clashes with reality. It shows that in the game of politics like chess everybody is sooner or later eliminated at whatever cost.
