When it comes to Polly Noonan, there’s no fine line between the political and personal. For her… it’s only personal.
Especially now that her hero, “mayor for life” Erastus Corning, is in a pitched battle for control of the Albany Democratic party. THE TRUE explores the bounds of love, loyalty, and female power in the male-dominated world of 1977 machine politics.
