Although the film depicting politics is inevitably ugly and dark, this film portrays it deeply and deeply through an insider (also a bystander)!
A governor falls, and a governor rises. Stark is regarded as a governor who wants to do something for the common people in public (and indeed he does), and in private he is also a lecherous and powerful man. He escaped the impeachment of his political opponent, but he did not escape the indirect murder of his political opponent. The reporter played by Jude Law has witnessed Stark's entire political career, when he heard about the scandal between his loved one and Governor Stark, his biological father committed suicide because of the governor's impeachment case, and his friend became a murderer. We are the only ones who can feel the taste of the Governor's "Hand of Justice".
PS: Sean Penn is really suitable to play Hitler, ^_^. As for Kate Winslet, I can't really recognize who it is without looking at the cast (so slim~~S)
