Nothing Else Comes Close.
More Seductive Than Sex. . .More Addictive Than Any Drug . . .More Precious Than Gold. And One Man Can Get It For You. For A Price!!!!.


Media manipulator Pete St. John can package a politician, doctor a spin and transform an on-camera gaffe into a moment of glory. And the candidate's views? They're not St. John's business. If a candidate can pay, St. John is ready to play. In Power, director Sidney Lumet again peels back the veneer of public institution to reveal the way things are, aided by charismatic supporting players Julie Christie, Gene Hackman, Kate Capshaw and Denzel Washington. Everywhere St. John uses his smarts to steer clients to victory. But something is different in this run to November. A client may be enmeshed in a scandal hinting of foreign money corrupting U.S. Elections.
