Matthew Broderick in "Election" (1999)
There are plenty of movies on political topics, but only a smaller subset that specifically focus on elections and the nitty-gritty of the campaign trail. Fortunately, even in that select group, there are a number of excellent films, so this week, we'd like to ask what
your favorite election-themed flicks are. And speaking of "Flick," I'll kick things off with my top trio:
• The Candidate (1972), starring Robert Redford
• Primary Colors (1998), starring John Travolta & Emma Thompson
• Election (1999), starring Matthew Broderick & Reese Witherspoon
How about you?
