Director: Michael Ritchie

Cast: o.a. Robert Redford, Peter Boyle, Melvyn Douglas, Don Porter, Allen Garfield,
Karen Carlson, Quinn K. Redeker, Morgan Upton.

Description: Robert Redford stars as Bill McKay, a California lawyer urged
to run against the seemingly unbeatable Republican incumbent in a senatorial
race. McKay is a well-meaning innocent, but as support widens for his open
platform, the sellout begins. 
With an Oscar-winning script and appearances
by real-life reporters and politicians, 'The Candidate' takes a biting look
at the nature of politics.
