Sarah Palin vs. 'Sarah Palin': Mama Grizzly Goes Off on HBO's 'Game Change'

March 08, 2012 Hot Topics

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she is not planning to watch the HBO film "Game Change" when it premieres this Saturday night. You betcha she won't.

The film focuses on Sen. John McCain's 2008 presidential bid and his controversial choice of Palin as running mate.

Palin recently told FOX News, "I honestly will not waste my time watching it and I encourage others to find something more productive to do."

"Extra's" AJ Calloway talked with Julianne Moore, who portrays Palin, at the film's premiere Wednesday. Moore explained, "It's not about Sarah Palin. It's really a look at how we elect our leaders."

The actress said the process to turn her into Palin took some time. "It was a two-and-a half-hour process every morning, we had the pictures up all these different references. There was a lot of artistry involved in getting to look like her."

"Game Change" premieres Saturday, March 10 at 9 pm on HBO.
