Saltzman Sees...Recount (2008)

Recount is a chronicle of the weeks after the 2000 U.S. presidential election and the subsequent recounts in Florida.  George Bush was declared the winner of the 2000 election despite losing the popular vote.  Al Gore, who did win, was declared the loser.  How it happened, and that process is fascinating, confusing, and down right infuriating.  An All-Star cast delivers for HBO once again, headed by Kevin Spacey, Denis Leary, Tom Wilkinson, and Laura Dern.  Jay Roach, who is better known for comedies like the Austin Powers Trilogy and Meet the Parents, delivers here as well.
