Trama
In un mondo che cambia, dove la televisione è diventata la principale fonte di informazione, un giovane giornalista è testimone di come suo zio, Frank Skeffington, un politico veterano e onesto, sindaco di una città del New England, cerca di farsi rieleggere mentre banchieri e uomini d'affari cospirano nell'ombra per mettere un candidato debole e maneggevole nel consiglio comunale.
