Drama, comedy, biography. USA 2018, 132 min. Directed by Adam McKay. Starring: Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Steve Carell, Sam Rockwell, Jesse Plemons. In English with Russian subtitles. The 46th Vice President of the United States, Dick Cheney, is one of the most influential politicians of the 20th century, who permanently altered the course of history not just in his own country, but of the entire world. But he wasn’t always like that, when he began his career from the very bottom of the ladder. In his cutting and caustic satire, Adam McKay carefully studies just how persistently and nearly unbeknownst to those around him this quiet Washington bureaucrat climbed the ladder of power, who had his back, whose interests he represented, what brought him to such a career, and how America is dealing with the consequences of his decisions today. The film was nominated for eight Oscars, and Christian Bale already earned a Golden Globe for his starring role, which demanded a complete transformation from him.
