Miss Sloane 15

A ruthless lobbyist, Elizabeth Sloane is driven by her motivation to win. First working with a conservative lobbying firm that is set to oppose a bill to regulate firearms, Sloane makes a dramatic U-turn to work for the opposition devoted to supporting the bill. The complexities of her behaviour are examined in this gripping character-study: the determined, yet enigmatic figure is portrayed impeccably by Jessica Chastain, whose performance is deliciously captivating.

Madden’s latest release is a tense political thriller, executed through a wealth of electrifying performances and fiery exchanges: Miss Sloane navigates the dark and dingy world of those who make the decisions behind closed doors that have the power to create shockwaves across the country.
