Synopsis: From director Jay Roach and writer Danny Strong - the team behind the 2005 Emmy winning HBO Films drama Recount - and executive producers Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman - Game Change offers a searing, behind-the-scenes look at John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign, from the decision to select Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate to the ticket's ultimate defeat in the general election just sixty days later. Game Change pulls back the curtain on the intense human drama surrounding the McCain team, the critical decisions made behind closed doors and how the choice was made to bring Palin on the ticket.
