A Oval Office satire depicts one day in the life of a beleaguered
American commander-in-chief. It's November in the Presidential
election year, and incumbent Charles Smith's chances for reelection
are looking grim. Approval ratings are down, his money's running out,
and nuclear war might be imminent. Though his staff has thrown in the
towel and his wife has begun to prepare for her post-White House life,
Chuck isn't ready to give up just yet. Amidst the biggest fight of his
political career, the President has to find time to pardon a couple of
turkeys - saving them from the slaughter before Thanksgiving - and
this simple PR event inspires Smith to risk it all in attempt to win
back public support. With Mamet's characteristic no-holds-barred
style, November is a scathingly hilarious take on the state of America
today and the lengths to which people will go to win.
