Info: This is the improbable but true story of three Americans hired against all odds to convince the Russian people to denounce Communism. This is George Gorton. Calling from Moscow, Russia. June 16, 1996. The reason Im calling is, I may be killed today, or disappear. In which case I want the police to know what happened. The call is franticand dead serious. Sometimes theres a solid reason for being paranoid. For American campaign manager, George Gorton (Oscar nominee Jeff Goldblum, Jurassic Park), it begins eight months earlier when he and his partners, Joe Shumate (Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Liev Schreiber, The Sunshine Boys, Scream) and Dick Dresner (Emmy nominee Anthony LaPaglia, Lantana, Without a Trace), receive an irresistible opportunity to spearhead the first free election in Russian historyand bring Boris Yeltsin to victory. Up for the challenge, theyre transported to Russia and given total VIP treatment. However, this once-in-a-lifetime gig is already arousing suspicions among Gorton, Shumate, and Dresner, because it comes with the most curiousand somewhat impossiblecaveats! Hallmark Entertainment presents one of the most controversial and fascinating true political dramas of the past century. From Emmy nominated director Roger Spottiswoode (Tomorrow Never Dies, And the Band Plays On), and featuring an all-star cast, Spinning Boris brings to life a secret, untold moment that changed history forever.
