Superb on all levels. Great cast. Hit Broadway play. Fine performances. A totally absorbing story and theme. Two candidates are running for thePresidency of the United States. One is honorable. The other is not . Anything to grab the solid-gold ring! A behind-the-scenes look at politicalnational politics and the people who will say and do anything to bring the grand prize home to their nest. Henry Fonda is the good guy. Cliff Robertson is the man in black. Fine performances by Lee Tracy as the sitting president of The United States. Margaret Leighton as Fonda'sestranged wife and Ann Sothern as an influential women's activist are near-perfect and excel throughout. Good supporting cast which includes Kevin McCarthy, Gene Raymond and Shelley Berman. Watch this one. It's a winner! Who wins the election? Watch it and find out. Hint. It's anunexpected surprise but most fitting. Incidently, Lee Tracy was oscar nominated for his portrayal of the president.
