No matter which way you voted in the 2000 presidential election – or if you didn’t vote and it was counted, or if you did vote and it wasn’t – you’ve likely got a strong opinion about what went down in Florida those strange, intense weeks of December and January.
HBO’s new original movie, directed by Jay Roach (the Austin Powers trilogy) and written by Danny Strong (Seabiscuit) looks to take an edgy comedic look at those historic events a la Primary Colors. We sort of wish John Sayles had helmed the project, but the trailer looks promising all the same.
Recount premieres Memorial Day weekend – Sunday, May 25th. You don’t need us to tell you to check your local listings for time and channel number, so we won’t.

I won’t be watching. It would be too painful to revisit that tragedy.
