Zipper (2015)
6/10
A LITTLE VACATION FROM MY MARRIAGE
26 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Sam Ellis (Patrick Wilson) is an up and coming prosecutor. He goes after white collar politicians who are "over privileged and morally bankrupt." He wants to take done the mayor. In his office he interviews a high priced escort (Elena Satine) who claims the mayor was her client. Sam is reluctant to prosecute but does become curious about the web site. Soon he has an addiction for $1000/hr call girls. Their is an investigation of the escort service which causes Sam to panic setting up the second half of the film.

The film takes place in South Carolina which had a governor with zipper problems. The film is also timed nicely with the Ashley Madison breech. The film never allows you to feel compassion for Sam Ellis, so when he gets into trouble, you are just watching a guy go through the motions. This appears to be some sort of behind the scenes of our real politicians film that didn't seem to drive it home.

Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Lena Headey, Alexandra Breckenridge, Penelope Mitchell, Jessica Pike)
