The Ides of March

George Clooney|Politthriller

The young idealist Stephen Myers has big ambitions. As the spokesman for the would-be Democratic presidential candidate Mike Morris, he has high hopes of a fast-track career. Together with campaign manager Paul Zara, he gives everything to ensure his boss shines in the public eye. The spin doctor, however, soon becomes the victim of dirty tricks and cunning intrigues contrived by his political rivals. And the naïve young man also finds a skeleton in his own camp’s closet. He must now decide whether he is capable of colluding with the dodgy rules of backroom politics. This star-studded political thriller tells of ambition, loyalty, betrayal and revenge in the world of politics, and cuts deep with its razor-sharp dialogue.
