Big plus for Julianne Moore! I have a secret woman-crush on her!

this trailer looks great! Ed Harris as McCain - Julianne Moore as Palin - and Woody Harrelson as the McCain campaign manager - screenplay by Buffy the Vampire Slayer's Danny Strong - adapted from the book by Mark Halperin - this is looking surprisingly awesome!

Has Palin complained about it yet?

i wonder if they will try to make Palin the scapegoat for McCain's losing?

The comments over at Mediaite are a hoot! Sarah still has a few defenders out there.

I've always wondered about the goings-on behind the scenes in that campaign.

Thanks, Tx4obama!

Guess I'll have to rely on the comments and reviews. I can't wait. Should provide some much needed laughter.

Tina had the look, but not the fangs. Julianne gets that all. Of course she's great at portraying damaged, unhappy women.

I'm just wondering if it will get as panned as Oliver Stone's JFK for being "factually incorrect".

I can't wait to see it.

there will be a film on HBO that I want to see - and I don't have HBO.

What I do is call Comcast up the day before the a film that I want to see is to air and ask them to add HBO - at the same time I always ask if their policy is still the same which is that you can add HBO and then cancel it whenever you want to and only be billed a pro-rated amount - and so far they've always said 'yes'.
So, I have them add HBO and then call them back the day after the film airs to cancel.
That ends up costing me only a couple dollars and I get to see whatever it is that I really want to see.

Just an idea that might be helpful to others

He was a lawyer on Ally McBeal. They called him the Biscuit.

I currently have Showtime, but I'll have to switch to HBO before the premiere.
