My feature from today's Review in the Independent
The 2008 presidential contest between Barack Obama and John McCain has been t he most thrilling and dramatic race in modern American history, and it’s sure to make a hell of a movie some day.
All the elements are there for a great Hollywood epic: generational conflict, cliff hangers, intrigue, bitch fights, glamorous leading ladies (as well as the odd femme fatale), and a spectacular plot twist in the third act in the form of vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, a candidate and a character that even the most imaginative screenwriter would surely struggle to create.
