“The untold true story that changed the course of history.”
George W. Bush picks Dick Cheney, the CEO of Halliburton Co., to be his Republican running mate in the 2000 presidential election. No stranger to politics, Cheney's impressive résumé includes stints as White House chief of staff, House Minority Whip and Defense Secretary. When Bush wins by a narrow margin, Cheney begins to use his newfound power to help reshape the country and the world.
A cynical, sharp-edged plunge into the machinations of power, this film feels like a relentless, darkly comedic exposé. It's a provocative, often disquieting, examination of political ambition and its far-reaching consequences, delivered with propulsive energy and a satirical bite.
