"Voting is awesome. But you know what the only downer thing about voting is? It only lasts about 90 seconds, when you get right down to it. (I know that&amp;#39;s not actually a bad thing--you spend enough time waiting in line.) But what are you supposed to do with the rest of your political adrenaline over the next 36 hours?\nI mean, one can only take so much Wolf Blitzer. (Sorry, Wolf!)\nSo you might want to have some classic movies onhand to help pass the time without taking you totally out of the politics game. It all depends on what you&amp;#39;re looking for.\nIf you&amp;#39;re in a the-little-guy-can-make-a-difference mood: try Dave, the ultimate everyman-presidency movie, the iconic Norma Rae...\nPinterestFacebookOr one of my all time favorites: the Watergate takedown All the President&amp;#39;s Men.\nPinterestFacebookIf you&amp;#39;re looking for some purely wonky government goodness: go vintage with Jimmy Stewart&amp;#39;s filibuster lesson Mr. Smith Goes to Washington--or Wag the Dog&amp;#39;s big satire.\nPinterestFacebookIf it&amp;#39;s the strategy, not the winning, that thrills you: HBO&amp;#39;s Game Change is top-notch adrenaline (plus, once you&amp;#39;ve seen it, you get to be that annoying/savvy person yelling &amp;#39;didja see that pivot?&amp;#39; during debates). Also not to be missed: Frost/Nixon and its themes of media-driven downfall.\nPinterestFacebookIf you like White House dish better than policy: Primary Colors never gets old and Bulworth has Warren Beatty and Halle Berry in it (&amp;#39;nough said).\nPinterestFacebookIf you want high stakes and serious historical drama: I think I&amp;#39;ve held my breath through entire showings of Thirteen Days, and Milk is one of the great political movie masterpieces ever.\nPinterestFacebookIf you&amp;#39;d rather go dark, thanks: Revisit Tracy Flick&amp;#39;s ruthless Election tactics--or double down on Big-Brother theories with V for Vendetta.\nPinterestFacebookAnd if you kinda want to feel red white and blue but can&amp;#39;t take another word of the hard stuff: you need the thoroughly absurd hilarity that is The Campaign or the crazy-campy Dick.\nPinterestFacebookAs a bonus for those of you who&amp;#39;d rather watch stuff in half-hour chunks (all the better for checking in on the polls): may I strongly, strongly suggest you get into Veep? I came to the show late--guilty--but it is wonderful.\nPinterestFacebookWonderful.\nWhat&amp;#39;s your favorite political movie?\nMore fun stuff...\nTwo New Preggers Celebs\nA GIF Tribute to Nolan&amp;#39;s Revenge Faces\nA Boy Meets World Sequel Series Is in the Works\nP.S.
