Netflix Movie Review - “Recount”

 Movie - Recount REVIEW: I must admit that I was pleasantly pleased after viewing this movie. Both Connie and I thought this documentary was extremely well done and, from our recollections, it accurately compiled weeks of news clips and stories and melded them into a cohesive true to life depiction of what probably happened during that tumultuous time.  Kevin Spacey and John Hurt were both excellent in their respective roles.  Maybe were are biased because we both already felt that Al Gore was “robbed” of the presidency.  Regardless of your political affiliations or bias, it is a must see.  We both gave it [5-Stars]

 

SYNOPSIS: This made-for-TV, Emmy-winning film chronicles the extraordinary behind-the-scenes drama that unfolded in the weeks following the highly controversial 2000 election -- a presidential race that further split an already divided America. With the country's leadership hanging in the balance after the closest vote in history, the battle between George W. Bush and Al Gore would come down a hotly contested vote count in Florida. Kevin Spacey and Laura Dern (in a Golden Globe-winning role) star.
