Primary Colors (1998)

Edit this Page
Mike Nichols Director previously directed The Birdcage

John Travolta plays a Clinton-esque fictional president nominee battling smear campaigns and sexual scandals during his rocky electoral campaign.
Quote: Jack Stanton

You know as well as I do, that plenty of people playing this game, they don't think that way. They're willing to sell their souls, crawl through sewers, lie to people, divide them, play on their worst fears for nothing! Just for the prize.
