One of television's most critically acclaimed programmes, The Wire addresses the seedy side of Baltimore’s finest, looking into money, drugs, politics and murder. Told from the point of view of both the police and their targets, the series captures a universe of subterfuge and surveillance, where easy distinctions between good and evil, and crime and punishment, are challenged at every turn. A study on urban life in one of America’s toughest cities, each season of The Wire has focused on a different aspect of Baltimore, starting with the police force and the drug trade, then moving on to City Hall, the education system and concluding with the media.
Nicolas Cage stars in this political drama based on the aftermath of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Louisiana congressman Colin Pryce (Cage), representing New Orleans and the Gulf Coast, finds himself in the spotlight when a British Petroleum oil rig explodes in his territory. As the little-known politican goes on national television to beg for aid to help those affected by the spill, he unwittingly becomes an overnight celebrity, much to the delight of his fame-hungry wife Deborah (Connie Nielsen). As Pryce's power and status grows, he finds himself once again making the headlines but this time for being caught having an affair with a married woman. Can Pryce fight off the unwanted media attention to achieve his goal of running for senate?
