ABOUT
THE MOVIE: |
SWING VOTE follows the story of Bud Johnson (KEVIN COSTNER),
an apathetic, beer-slinging, lovable loser, who is coasting through
a life that has passed him by. The one bright spot is his
precocious, over-achieving 12-year-old daughter Molly. She takes
care of both of them, until one mischievous moment on Election Day,
when she accidentally sets off a chain of events which culminates in
the election coming down to one vote…her
dad’s.
Directed by Joshua Michael Stern, produced by Costner and Jim Wilson and written by Jason Richman and Stern, SWING VOTE also stars PAULA PATTON, KELSEY GRAMMER, DENNIS HOPPER, NATHAN LANE, STANLEY TUCCI, GEORGE LOPEZ, WILLIE NELSON, JUDGE REINHOLD, MARE WINNINGHAM, RICHARD PETTY, and introduces MADELINE CARROLL.
Rated PG-13. Opens in theaters August 1, 2008. |
