Synopsis
Academy Award® winners Sandra Bullock (The Blind Side) and Billy Bob Thornton (Sling Blade) star in this political dramedy from George Clooney and Grant Heslov, the Oscar®-winning producers of Argo. When brilliant-but-retired strategist "Calamity" Jane Bodine (Bullock) and her elite management team is enlisted by a Bolivian presidential candidate failing badly in the polls, she's coaxed back into the game for the chance to beat her professional nemesis, the loathsome Pat Candy (Thornton), now coaching the opposition. But as Candy zeroes in on every vulnerability - both on and off the campaign trail - Jane is plunged into a personal crisis as intense as the one her team exploits nationally to boost their numbers. Laced with drama and rapid-fire satire, Our Brand is Crisis reveals the cynical machinations and private battles of world-class political consultants for whom nothing is sacred and winning is all that matters.
