Fair Game Preview Screening ; Blogger Exclusive


A fascinating glimpse into the dark corridors of political power, Fair Game is a riveting drama inspired by the experiences of real-life undercover CIA officer Valerie Plame, whose career is destroyed and her marriage strained to its limits when her covert status is exposed by a White House press leak.

Valerie Plame (Watts), a covert officer in the CIA’s counter-proliferation department, discovers that Iraq has no active nuclear weapons program, contrary to the belief of many in the U.S. government. Meanwhile, Valerie’s husband Joe Wilson (Sean Penn), a former ambassador to Niger, is sent by the State Department to Africa to investigate rumors of the possible sale of enriched uranium to Iraq. After the White House ignores Joe’s findings that no such deal took place, (along with at least two other reports that also confirmed the absence of any evidence of a uranium purchase) and declares war on Iraq, Joe writes a piece in The New York Times outlining his conclusions and ignites a firestorm of controversy.

Soon after, Valerie’s covert status is leaked to high-profile Washington journalists. Is it an unfortunate coincidence or a coordinated campaign to retaliate against her husband for his very public disagreement with the government? With her cover blown and her overseas contacts now left exposed and vulnerable, Valerie is pushed to the breaking point as her career and private life begin to implode. Friends become indignant, then distant. Valerie receives anonymous death threats and Joe’s consulting business dries up as a result of the concerted smear campaign against them. After 18 years serving the government, Valerie—a mother, a wife and a field officer with an impeccable record—now struggles to save her reputation, her career and her marriage.

Crackling with sharp dialogue, intrigue and heart-pounding suspense, Fair Game is the gripping account of one woman’s struggle to overcome a staggering betrayal and reclaim her life.

The movie consist of slight humourous content. It's about terrorism during the period where USA suspect Saddam Hussein of trying to make the Weapon of Mass Destruction (WMD). A spy, Valerie Plame, working in the CIA is going around the world and trying to collect information regarding WMD through those who had work on nuclear project with Saddam or relatives of those workers. After verifying that WMD does not actually exist, Valerie Plame's husband wrote an article regarding the "yellow cake" deal which actually defers from the information which the president of then, Bush, had told the media and public. It had indirectly caused the leak of identity of Valerie Plame as the Chief of Staff for the Vice President is unhappy with his article. After which, it causes a lot of trouble for Valerie's family and her husband helps her to fight back all the reports by giving out talks at different location and even going on TV. This movie is base on a true story, so if you want to find out what exactly happen to Valerie Plame, do check out this movie.
