Review
"John Curran's gripping story about a 50-year-old scandal has plenty to say about modern politics."--Newsday"We've been so awash in hackneyed Kennedy brogues and caricatured portrayals that Clarke's performance -- stout, nuanced, understated almost to a fault -- is an unexpected relief."--Associated Press"First-time screenwriters Taylor Allen and Andrew Logan's tight script sticks mostly to the well-documented facts and aftermath, and Clarke lets his Teddy live in the tricky place between sympathy and straight villain-hood."--Entertainment Weekly
