A powerful new look at the human side of iconic world leaders. In 1993, Tony Blair was a rising young star in British politics. Three years later he ran for Prime Minister and began a “special relationship” with U.S. President Bill Clinton that endured through triumph, conflict and personal scandal. HBO Films presents Michael Sheen, Dennis Quaid, Hope Davis, and Helen McCrory in the behind-the-scenes story of two world leaders who forged a loyal, if tempestuous, friendship out of the crucible of political necessity: The Special Relationship.

A film about a friendship forged, strengthened, threatened and ultimately reaffirmed by top global politics. That's great. I enjoyed the strange relationships immensely. Superbly acted (Sheen-Quaid) and scored (Desplat).
