Irresistible, starring Steve Carrell and Rose Byrne, is set to be released on POV this Friday June 26th. The film was written and directed by Jon Stewart, and centers around a small town campaign for Mayor. This is an election year and politics are the talk of every Facebook page around, however Irresistible gives a different spin to political views and looks beyond the candidate but more on the campaign and campaign funding. It also had some great movie quotes to come out of the film, so you know I jotted some of my favorites down. Check out this collection of 35+ Irresistible quotes you will enjoy from the film!
