Game Change

“Politics would never be the same.”

Steve Schmidt (Woody Harrelson) is a strategist on John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign, and he needs a bold pick for a running mate to change the race. The choice lands on Sarah Palin (Julianne Moore), the governor of Alaska, whom almost no one in the country has heard of. Jay Roach follows her from the first phone call into the campaign's full speed, as she learns how little preparation the job allowed and how much the people around her are counting on it.
