"Power" covers the story of the most influential vice president in the history of the United States, Dick Cheney (played by Christian Bale). When the world is ruled by acquaintances and money, one person can concentrate unlimited power in his hands. The ability to persuade, a sharp mind and access to classified information allowed him to become a powerful puppeteer of the White House, rewriting world history in the shadows... Having worked in the administrations of George Bush Sr., Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, the power-hungry politician took a job as George Bush Jr.'s right-hand man in 2001 the hand that controls the president. After reshaping the US political system, actively advocating the war in Iraq, Dick Cheney soon became the most influential, most powerful and most hated political person in US history. Bold, eye-opening, and enriched with elements of black humor, the film illuminates the rise and fall of the vice president, using today's most famous actors - Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Amy Adams and Sam Rockwell - to tell the story. "The Power" earned as many as 6 nominations for the Golden Globe, The Hollywood Reporter calls the film the best film of the year, and Brad Pitt himself undertook to produce it. According to film critics, the actor Christian Bale, who has gained 20 kilograms and surprisingly imitates Dick Cheney's speech and mannerisms, is predicted to win the second Oscar of his career for the role.
