Jessica Chastain plays 'Miss Sloane', a lobbyist seeking to influence United States' Senators to support a bill to strengthen gun ownership laws. Unsurprisingly she faces strong opposition from supporters of the National Rifle Association (although I'm not certain that the NRA is ever referred to by name in the film).
Miss Sloane is ruthless in pursuit of her objectives playing off both supporters and opponents to achieve an advantage.
A thoroughly absorbing political thriller with a stand out performance from Chastain.

I bet it a big hit with the gun nuts.

Indeed Dora one of my other American resident friends referred to it as 'leftist bullshit'.
