Title: Willie Stark is more gutsy than Bush or Clinton
Review: Although this film is about corruption and politics, Willie Stark hasmore 'guts' than anybody running today in the year, 2008.And Sadie Burke(Mercedes McCambridge) could blow Hillary Clinton backto Arkansas along with her wimpbag husband, Bill.All said and done, this film is fantastic, better than the novel--too trashy, salty language(who needs it!)Great cast, screenplay and director. John Ireland SHOULD have gottenthe OSCAR for best supporting actor--he could wipe the floor with Sadie and 'Ann'(Joanne Dru)both together. And a young John Derek was very good as the football player brother, Tom.An excellent film. Didn't know about it until I saw it on TCM!
