Why watch this film?
This political drama directed by Jason Reitman (of 'Juno', 'Tully') tells the true story of Senator Gary Hart, who ran for president in the 1988 Democratic primaries and was the favorite – until his image was tarnished by the tabloids. 'The Favorite' raises questions about the role of media in politics and the privacy of public figures. Unfortunately the movie does not go beyond the superficial, which is a waste, but the performances of Hugh Jackman, Vera Farmiga and the rest of the cast make the feature worthwhile.
