Politicians are actors

I just finished watching Inside Job, a film about economics, and this Casino Jack came to popularize political knowledge.
OK, learning from movies.

Lobbyist
1. a person who tries to influence legislation on behalf of a special interest;
2. a person who tries to influence public officials to take a desired action.

Washington is Hollywood with ugly faces.
Politicians are actors.

Jack is not a bad guy, I think he still has love in him.
But in that position, driven by financial interests, his moral bottom line is also blurred.
One link is linked to the other, as long as a small wrong decision is made, it will be uncontrollable afterward.

Kevin Spacey is such a fantastic actor.

    The director has a lot of ideas, he just doesn't have that ability. In addition to satisfying Kevin Spacey's personal desire to perform politicians with political themes, the film really has no other advantages. There are no emotional lines in the characters, no conspiracy theories in the story, and boring political nonsense everywhere. The director also played a narrative structure with flashbacks and branch lines in the middle. Unfortunately, the director himself has not been able to control it. ★★

    Only Kevin did what he was supposed to do
