Game Change

Roach recounts another modern political tale and Moore manages the impossible by not turning Palin into a caricature, almost as difficult an effort as those of the other characters to turn her into a politician.  Harrelson’s advisor manages to remain central focus amidst recognizable Harris and Palin, and supportive Paulson.

Adaptation.

Writing fifty words about Adaptation.  Could be difficult.  Would have to be introspective and witty.  Cleverly self-referential perhaps.  Can’t employ Kaufman’s witty plot-structure.  Must handle subjective abstract concept in concrete form.  But that would be a boring review indeed.  No.  Brilliant editing! Ingeniously crafted!  Streep, Cooper, Cage and especially Cage!
