Directed by: Rod Lurie
Starring: Gary Oldman, Jeff Bridges, Christian Slater, Joan Allen, William Petersen
President Jackson Evans: Mr. Chairman, let's just say..."I'm guilty but not responsible", hmm?
Laine Hanson: Principles only mean something when you stick to them when its inconvenient.
Shelly Runyon: We're both sticking to our guns. The difference is, mine are loaded.
President Jackson Evans: You're the future of the Democratic party. And you always will be.
President Jackson Evans: I'll die before Shelly Runyon checkmates me.
Factual error: Towards the end of the movie when the President is addressing Congress, Joan Allen is seen outside of the building jogging. Joan Allen, being a senator and thereore a part of Congress, should have been inside the building.
Trivia: Judging by his looks, one would think Gary Oldman is paying homage to that Sean Penn's also somewhat 'offbeat' lawyer-characterization in "Carlito's Way".
