About this product

Product Information

During a gubernatorial race in small-town Colorado, a mystery is uncovered involving a dead body found in a local lake. A private detective, Danny (Danny Huston), is hired by the governor-to-be's campaign manager (Richard Dreyfuss), who is worried that the unexpected event may be used as a scandal-maker by the opposition. But when Danny begins to investigate, he learns that business mogul Wes Benteen (Kris Kristofferson), is using the candidate, Dickie Pilager (Chris Cooper), to promote his moneymaking agenda. Director-writer-editor John Sayles weaves together multiple storylines involving environmental issues, political and corporate corruption, activism, illegal aliens, labor laws, and also a sweet love affair, simplifying it all into a cohesive and deeply enjoyable drama. He gets powerful performances from each cast member, making the characters shine in all of their nuanced intricacies. This strong film reflects on the presidency of George W. Bush in that candidate Pilager is a good-hearted Republican who lacks communications skills and a backbone, allowing regulation to lapse, power to be abused, and a scourge of long-term problems to be ignored. Meanwhile, SILVER CITY is a gripping whodunit, set in the still-dusty New West where old silver mines become real estate developments, and corporate tycoons attempt to privatize protected land for their own bounty. The immediate, effective supporting cast includes Daryl Hannah, Thora Birch, Tim Roth, Maria Bello, Sal Lopez, Miguel Ferrer, and Billy Zane.

  • Great Tale of How a DimWit Can Attain Political Office

    Dimwitted son of a powerful Colorado Senator Runs for Governor. This is a story of how a well connected political family and dubious family business alliances combine to put "their man" into the Governors office. Once this good old boy is elected, he'll be able to smooth over all of the pesky environmental regulations that constrain the business interests of his family's benefactors. Unfortunately, the bad practices of big business and bad people finally catch up with them as a murder mystery slowly unfolds. This story closely relates to a similarly well connected political family that is cozy with big business in the United States. The family I'm thinking about is now occupying the White House. Great performances by a fantastic ensemble cast. This movie was ...

  • pretty quirky and a puzzle, but good.

    i just got this last night and enjoyed it immensely. there's an obvious charicature of Bush jr. and other political leaders in there, which makes it more fun. but the film really isn't about the candidate that's like him--its about an investigator brought in after a dead body is found hooked on the candidate's fishing line in the lake. its interesting where this story goes, that there's always more than meets the eye, and it takes off on so many directions, but always comes back to center. its a great contribution by the brilliant john sayles, its a thoughtful piece that i was happy to hear about and get.

  • Great movie!!

    Great movie!!
