Infrequent coarse language

Director: Stephen Frears
Actors: David Morrissey, Michael Sheen, Dexter Fletcher

From Academy Award nominees Stephen Frears (The Queen, High Fidelity) and Peter Morgan (The Queen, The Last King of Scotland) comes another smart and engaging story of British politics behind the scenes (Barry Garron,The Hollywood Reporter ). The Deal probes the rivalry between real-life Prime Ministers Tony Blair (Michael Sheen, The Queen) and Gordon Brown (David Morrissey), who, for the sake of a nation, struck an extraordinary deal. Scathing, witty and imaginatively filmed, The Deal is an intense and riveting film that captivates from beginning to end.

Quite interesting. They managed to make these two leaders into "real" people and not just the face on TV in in the paper.
