Bulworth (1998)
Country: US
Technical: col 108m
Director: Warren Beatty
Cast: Warren Beatty, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Oliver Platt, Jack Warden, Paul Sorvino
Synopsis:
A Democratic senator in Los Angeles on a campaigning weekend prior to the 1996 primaries suddenly starts irresponsibly telling the truth, having resolved to commit literal suicide by taking out a contract on himself.
Review:
Free-wheeling, hilarious political comedy/thriller (it toys cleverly with both). The performances ring surprisingly true, the writing doesn't care whom it offends and the narrative never careers out of shape. And the language is atrocious.
