...it's the screenplay that wins the day, crammed with so much inventiveness and charm that a third stab at the golden statuette must surely be on the cards.

Härlig. Milt uttryckt. Tankeväckande.

det konservative 1950erne (republikanerne?) møder det moderne USA (demokraterne?) i denne fine komedie. Det hele skæres ud i pap, så alle kan være med, men man hygger sig fint undervejs.
