I guess we won't have to see any more dreck like this from Sydney Pollard. When HBO announced this project they tried to say with a straight face that it was going to be an impartial look at the 2000 election. Considering that every single major player (executive producer, producer and director) in the film has been a life long Democrat and major party donor it is obvious what the outcome was going to be even before the script was written. I guess if Recount is the cross we must bare in order to get mini-series like Band of Brothers and John Adams than so be it. I just wish they had the honesty and integrity to call it what it is.
