THURSDAY MOVIE CONNECTION!!!!Kevin Costner-- Stanley Tucci
Director: Joshua Michael Stern
Stars: Kevin Costner, Madeline Carroll, Paula Patton, Kelsey Grammer, Stanley Tucci, Dennis Hopper, Nathan Lane, Judge Reinhold
Bud Johnson (Costner) is an alcoholic factory-worker, whose over-achieving daughter, Molly (Carroll), wants him to get more involved in everything, especially on Election Day. Bud is supposed to meet her at the polls, but ends up passed out in his truck. Molly is desperate, and when the volunteer falls asleep, she signs her father's name, takes his ballot, and prepares to cast his vote. The ballot is in the machine, when it loses power suddenly, and Molly dashes out, the vote incomplete.
It doesn't take long for the authorities to figure out who didn't cast their vote. And maybe it wouldn't have mattered, except the Presidential election ends up hanging on the electoral votes in New Mexico, in Bud's county, and surprise, surprise-- on Bud's vote. Yes, it is discovered that Bud Johnson is the man who will pick the next President of the United States!
