- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone who loves backroom deals and speeches and anyone who likes knowing it really happened. Power and ambition drive every scene. Fans of All the Way should feel right at home. Based on real events, so expect to go down a research rabbit hole afterwards.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Lets scenes breathe, at 59 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- Made in 1976: an older pace and style.
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
A biography of President Harry S. Truman.
