Review of The Ides of March (2011) by Sally A — 05 Sep 2012
Very chilling, just makes you want to go out and kick a politician - if the movies (and history!) are to be believed, they are all lying, philandering bastards! This is well done, it observes rather than tells a story - touches of Cinema Verite can be found here, it starts out like a documentary following the day to day campaign work but things quickly get darker and we watch, pained, as Ryan Goslings character endures a serious reality check.
Quite disturbing if this is the kind of thing that really goes on behind presidential campaigns.
