Kingfish (1995)
Huey P. Long hat es mit großer Ausdauer und noch größerer Disziplin geschafft, in den 1930er-Jahren zum Gouvernor von Louisiana aufzusteigen. Hier vertritt er überaus linke Ziele und setzt sich für eine radikale Umverteilung der Vermögen ein. Doch seine Amtszeit wird auch überschattet von Vorwürfen der Erpressung und seines autokratischen Führungsstils. Durch diese verschafft er sich viele Feinde, was früher oder später zu einer Katastrophe führen kann..
