My 150 Favorite Movies - #79

Election (1999)

Alexander Payne directed this political parody on a micro scale (the plot concerns a High School Presidential campaign), and although it didn't have the ending I wanted it to have, the absurdist dialogue and delicious performances, particularly from Reese Witherspoon as an overly ambitious teenager, put this film in the must-see category. Based on the novel by Tom Perrotta.
