it's better than "the hills have eyes 3"

coming soon to a multiplex near you, a film on the national nightmare that was the hanging chad and the stolen 2000 election in flordia:

The botched Florida election that put George Bush in the White House and introduced the world to the butterfly ballot and the hanging chad is to be immortalised by Hollywood.

Oscar winner Sydney Pollack has been hired to direct the film Recount, which will look at events in the Sunshine State during the weeks after the controversial 2000 presidential election, in which 175,000 Floridians saw their votes rejected and Bush was declared the winner over Al Gore by a 537-vote margin.

still, i'm not holding out much hope considering that last two films of mr. pollack i have seen were "the interpreter" and "random hearts" (gag).
