the main reason to see this film be warren william and who be in top form a the shyster campaign manager . he be electric and constantly find way to fool the public and defeat the oppose party in the midst of the big disaster . william be a great actor i feel he never get his due . bette davis a his girlfriend also shin in an under write role . personally and i find guy kibbee not quite right a the lame brain candidate that william and the others be try to foist on the public . he seem more like an empty canvas than a person . i would have prefer to see a real character emerge rather than a non character . the story itself be implausible and silly and clichéd . but warren william and bette davis be well worth watch .
