ReviewsNew York Times - ...As scarily plausible as it is swift, hilarious and impossible to resist....Splendidly acted, written with biting acuity...and directed in discreetly sidesplitting fashion..., Rolling Stone - ...WAG THE DOG, besides being outrageous fun, is also a groundbreaker..., USA Today - ...Fitfully amusing political satire..., Sight and Sound - ...Extremely well-made...
AuthorLarry Beinhart
Additional InformationWhen a Firefly Girl accuses the president of sexual misconduct in the Oval Office less than two weeks before the upcoming election, White House official Winifred Ames (Anne Heche) is told to bring in Conrad Bream (Robert De Niro) to fix the situation and save the president's chances for reelection. This mysterious "fixer" fabricates a conflict with Albania in an effort to detract attention from the sex scandal, bringing in legendary Hollywood producer Stanley Motss (Dustin Hoffman) to "produce" the war. When the CIA foils the initial plot, the creative team turns to a new story line, creating the saga of a U.S. soldier left behind enemy lines whom the president vows to find and return to American soil. Directed by Barry Levinson (DINER, RAIN MAN) and loosely based on Larry Beinhart's novel AMERICAN HERO, this merging of Hollywood and politics is both thought provoking and comical. The inspired casting of Hoffman as the self-absorbed producer and De Niro as the mysterious spin doctor is bolstered by a superb supporting cast that includes Denis Leary and Andrea Martin.

How They Fake the News on TV
"Revelation of the method" if you have ever wondered about fake news, this movie shows how they do it. Richard Nixon said, "People will believe anything they see on TV."Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
