Having prestigious Robert Redford as a director, lead actor and producer, the movie “Lions for Lambs” treats the hot topic of America politics about war inside and outside the country.

Based on a screenplay written by Matthew Michael Carnahan who is familiar with the topic of conventional terrorism from his previous script for “The Kingdom”, the movie pictures Tom Cruise (Jasper Irving) as a slippery Republican senator whose greatest desire is to become president; Robert Redford as the idealistic college professor teaching political science and Meryl Streep (Janine Roth), winner of two Oscars and six Golden Globes, as the world weary journalist.
