Tracy Flick (Reese Witherspoon) is the most driven student at Carver High, who just happens to be having an affair with one of her teachers. Another teacher--Mr. McAllister (Matthew Broderick)--is having an affair with his wifes best friend. Student Elections are under way, when Mr. McAllister persuades football jock Paul to run against Flick for his own pleasure. Flick, of course, is mortified that Paul is even trying to compete. Tammy, Pauls lesbian sister who got dumped by her girlfriend to go with Paul, decides that running against her brother is the best revenge. Who will win the election this year?

This is a hilarious, sometimes eyebrow-raising film from the writer/director of SIDEWAYS and ABOUT SCHMIDT. Its also his flat-out funniest.
