Corporate salesman Steve Butler (Damon) arrives in a rural town with his sales partner, Sue Thomason (McDormand). With the town having been hit hard by the economic decline of recent years, the two outsiders see the local citizens as likely to accept their company's offer, for drilling rights to their properties, as much-needed relief. What seems like an easy job for the duo becomes complicated by the objection of a respected schoolteacher (Holbrook) with support from a grassroots campaign led by another man (Krasinski) who counters Steve both personally and professionally.
Skrattade en hel del under filmen, som jag tyckte var mycket välgjord med tanke på budgeten. Jag gillade den, men förstår också att det finns delade meningar kring filmen. Det känns som en film man antingen gillar eller hatar.
