Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - As part of their Every Tuesday Movie Night film series, the Costa Banderas Chapter of Democrats Abroad will present Fair Game on April 10th, at 7 pm, at the Paradise Community Center on the Southside of Puerto Vallarta.
Fair Game
A suspense filled glimpse into the dark corridors of political power by The Bourne Identity director Doug Liman, Fair Game is a riveting action thriller based on the autobiography of real-life undercover CIA operative Valerie Plame (Naomi Watts.)
As a covert officer in the CIA's Counter-Proliferation Division, Valerie leads an investigation into the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Valerie's husband, American diplomat Joe Wilson (Sean Penn), is drawn into the investigation to substantiate an alleged sale of enriched uranium from Niger.
Flame's career is destroyed and her marriage strained to its limits when her covert identity is blown by the George W. Bush administration. A politically motivated press leak not only puts her career in jeopardy, but also leaves her various contacts overseas in a precarious position.
When the administration ignores his findings and begins beating the war drums before any solid evidence had been gathered, Joe writes a New York Times editorial outlining his conclusions and decrying the hasty call to war. By doing so, Joe ignites a firestorm of controversy.
Years later, a jobless and publicly disgraced Plame wages a vicious fight to clear her name, set the record straight, and keep her family from falling apart.
