Recount

As regular cable is expensive enough I don't have HBO. So I was going to wait until Recount was on DVD to see it. Luckily, one of my neighbors taped it so I got to see it today.

Recount is a very well directed and well written film. It details what happened after the 2000 election. As everyone knows, the election was very close. And it took along time to find out who the "winner" was. But that whole thing was a scam.
As we can see from Recount Al Gore was the real winner. But the Supreme Court stopped the counting so he "lost." It is imperative that every vote be counted. And we won't even mention the 20,000 people who couldn't vote because their names were similar to people who were felons (I think that prisoners should be allowed to vote).

There are some wonderful actors in the cast - Kevin Spacey (Ron Klain), Bob Balaban (Ben Ginsberg), Ed Begley, Jr. (David Boies), Laura Dern (Katherine Harris), John Hurt (Warren Christopher), Dennis Leary (Michael Whouley), Tom Wilkinson (James Baker). I will not go into more about the film. Just make sure that you see it. It will make your blood boil. And don't think that this can't happen again (it just might have in Ohio in 2004)!
