When the US president (Michael Douglas), a widower, falls in love with a lobbyist (Annette Bening) just before he runs for reelection, he must struggle with the political repercussions of his romance as his cynical opponent (Richard Dreyfuss), attempts to use “family values” rhetoric against him. Politics, the press, and deeply held values collide in this intelligent 1995 romantic comedy from Rob Reiner (When Harry Met Sally, Misery).
