Starring: John Cusack, Al Pacino and Bridget Fonda.

He’s played it all - a blind war veteran, a Don, a cop, and even the devil. Now, Oscar winner Al Pacino has been cast as the mayor of New York City in this gritty political drama from director Harold Becker (Mercury Rising). The story revolves around a small-town boy who gets an ugly lesson in life through his adventures in the big city. John Cusack (Pushing Tin) plays the deputy mayor of New York City - an idealistic, loyal foot soldier to Pacino’s (Any Given Sunday) gregarious and often charming mayor. When a young child is killed during a gangland-police shootout, the administration gets into high gear investigating the murder and playing damage control. As Cusack digs deeper, he discovers a trail of cover-ups and widespread corruption - but just how high does it go? Incidentally, the driving force behind the film’s intense plot is a group of powerhouse screenwriters, including Oscar winner Bo Goldman (who did Pacino’s statue-winner, “Scent of a Woman”), Paul Schrader (Affliction) and Nicholas Pileggi (City Hall, Casino).
