In the 50's, in Louisiana, the smart populist, manipulative and wolf hick Willie Stark is elected governor with the support of the lower social classes. He joins a team composed of his bodyguard and friend Sugar Boy; the journalist from an aristocratic family Jack Burden; the lobbyist Tiny Duffy; and his mistress Sadie Burke, to face the opposition of the upper classes. When the influent Judge Irwin supports a group of politicians in their request of impeachment, Stark assigns Jack to find some dirtiness along the life of Irwin, leading to a tragedy in the end.

Filmed in my small town of Morgan City, La. I remember going to the filming site one day and seeing all the antique cars parked on front street. I sware to god, it was like I had walked into the actual pass. It may not be a big movie to most, but here we loved it. Also Sean Penn, got upset and made a statement to the point. "Why can't I get a smoothie in this lil buck town"? A lot of people didn't care for him for that. At the time, Morgan City, had no smoothie places. But now Sean, we have two (2) under our belts. Also he was a tremendous help, and godsend to the victims of Hurricane Katrina,. - @Thursday, November 17, 2016 6:36 AM

Loved this movie. Stark was a very entertaining character. His speeches were my favorite because they were so animated. - @Saturday, October 4, 2014 8:58 PM

This movie is underrated, while it is not the book, it is still good, and both this version and the first iteration of this movie are full of pros and cons. - @Friday, December 21, 2012 6:48 PM

this feels... poorly cast, IMO. I mean - I think Jude Law is actually pretty spot on, but Sean Penn feels so... wrong. You need a John Goodman character for Willie. And is Kate Winslet Sadie? That feels really wrong too. Jackie Earle Haley as Sugar Boy is excellent, though. - @Tuesday, September 13, 2011 10:26 PM

blackkat77

im only seeing this because jackie earle haley looks f-in hot in this..other than that it looks super boring :/ - @Sunday, July 31, 2011 2:42 AM

Kinda funny seeing the cast in the trailer with all their accolades Academy Award Winner Sean Penn Academy Award nominee Jude Law Academy Award nominee Kate Winslet Three time emmy award winner James Gandolfini Academy award nominee Patricia Clarkson and academy award winner Anthony Hopkins oh and that Mark Ruffalo guy is in this movie too. Though he's an oscar nominee now, so that's good - @Saturday, June 11, 2011 12:47 AM

@PerversionsOfNature yeah, it looked pretty awful from what i've seen from it. during sean penn's monologue, it didn't really amount to much other than to vote otherwise you're ignorant plus such a cheesy, "inspirational" score. - @Tuesday, March 8, 2011 2:53 AM
