The Ides of March is the name of the 15th of March in the Roman calendar, probably referring to the day of the full moon.
In modern times, the term Ides of March is best known as the date that Julius Caesar was killed in 44 B.C. Julius Caesar was stabbed (23 times) to death in the Roman Senate by a group of conspirators led by Marcus Junius Brutus and Gaius Cassius Longinus.
So, we can propose that the movie The Ides of March tackles cheating and betrayal in the current political scenario.
The movie stars George Clooney as Mike Morris, Governor of Pennsylvania and a Democratic presidential candidate while Ryan Gosling as Stephen Meyers, the mastermind behind Morris’ campaign.
PLOT (Wikipedia):
An idealistic staffer for a newbie presidential candidate gets a crash course on dirty politics during his stint on the campaign trail.
The Ides of March is directed and produced by George Clooney for a budget of $? million.
