As the clock ticks down to the end of the world, we dive into the chaotic landscape of high school politics with a sharp look at the dark comedy Election. Directed by Alexander Payne, this film cleverly dissects ambition, moral ambiguity, and the absurdity of student government. We debate whether it deserves a place in our vault of cinematic treasures or if it should be cast into the apocalyptic abyss.
With the characters' flawed motivations and ethical dilemmas laid bare, we explore how the film mirrors broader societal issues of power dynamics and ambition. Plus, we engage in a lively 1999 Movie Draft, selecting our favorite films from a year packed with unforgettable releases. Join us as we navigate the moral wasteland of Election—and stick around for a draft that promises to be just as entertaining as the film itself.
