Game Change Trailer Hits Internet
Well, it’s the moment you have all been waiting for! HBO’s original movie Game Change on Sarah Palin’s political rise and fall is on its way.
The network released the trailer, which is sure to get political pundits attention, and bring in viewers just based on the dramatization of the 2008 election.
Based on the book “Game Change” by John Heilemann and Mark Halperin, the film stars the remarkable Julianne Moore, who seems to have ripped a page out of Tina Fey’s book by nailing the look and mannerisms of a naive yet determined Governor of Alaska.
The film depicts the ups and downs of the campaign, including being away from family life, being undermined by staff, not being properly prepped for interviews, and of course her infamous “you can see Russia from my house” line. The film doesn’t just focus on her struggles but the negative reactions of the people on her campaign, which up until now has only been speculated. The trailer also shows the infringing relationship between Sen. John McCain (Ed Harris) and Palin disagreeing over the direction to take the campaign as well.
Other notable dialogue snippets include:
“They’re telling me what to wear, how to talk. I am not your puppet,” screams Palin into her cell phone after an televised interview gone wrong.
The film directed by Jay Roach is already receiving criticism for being a propaganda piece against Palin. HBO has promised that the movie is even portrayal on both sides and is a fair representation of Palin’s time on the circuit.
