https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ides_of_March_(film)

It’s the story of Stephen Meyers (Gosling), an up-and-coming campaign press secretary for presidential hopeful Governor Mike Morris (Clooney) and the dilemma whether to support or not the person he’s working for after he finds some of Morris’ prejudices.

Meyers is a young idealist who’s brilliant at communications, a true believer and a high-principled man who gives the best at his work.  During the frantic last days before the highly contested Democratic Ohio presidential primary, Meyers finds himself in the middle of a political scandal that has the potential to ruin Morris’ shot at the presidency. If the scandal becomes public it will ruin Morris career and Meyers’ hope of having a better nation. In the other hand, Morris’ scandal goes against everything Meyer believes in.  So, Meyer has to decide whether to  continue to support him, and what’s most important, choose between the career, victory, or his believes?

A film starring an extremely talented cast, including: George Clooney, Ryan Gosling, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Paul Giamatti, Marissa Tomei and many more which will spicy your Sunday evening.
