SYNOPSIS
Irresistible. Jon Stewart’s latest film, IRRESISTIBLE, follows what happens when a small town becomes the main attraction for two rival political pundits. Top Democratic consultant Gary Zimmer (Carell) sees an opportunity to win back voters in America’s heartland when a video of a passionate farmer and retired Marine colonel (Chris Cooper; Breach, August: Osage County) goes viral. After a long, hard day’s work as a farmhand, Gary persuades the farmer to run for mayor. However, when the Republican National Committee counters him by sending in his brilliant nemesis, Faith Brewster (Byrne), Gary is more than primed to up his game, turning this local race into a hilarious game of tug of war.
