All the Way is a really good dramatization of the political machinations that went on behind the scenes in the few crucial months that preceded the historical passing of this legislation, whose effects are still being fought on today.
Bryan Cranston is absolutely phenomenal as LBJ, with a supporting cast that includes Anthony Mackie, Melissa Leo, Frank Langella, Bradley Whitford, Stephen Root, Ray Wise, and Ken Jenkins.
THE BOTTOM LINE: A great crash course on American politics and on one of the most consequential pieces of legislations ever passed, which ended up changing the country's political landscape for decades to come. A must see.
