Dennis Quad seems a good choice for the film.

Yea, recently watched the trailer and a YT vid about the making of the movie.

Looks pretty good!

Well I could'a been an actor , but I wound up here...
As the song lyric says....

Might be a good watch...and yes , Dennis Quaid would make an excellent "Reagan ".

Looks like it might be a good watch. If they really tell the truth the left will have their hair on fire which will make it well worth it

Some studio made one about him with that guy who married Streisand as the lead. Making it clear it was going to be a hit piece. Then they did not release it and the actor of course was all kinds of pissed off. I thought it was pretty funny they spent that kind of cash then let the movie sit on the shelf.

I suspect that the response from the audience test screenings alarmed the studio. What sounded good in the Hollywood bubble didn't go over well with the public.

I wonder what kind of angle this is going to take... and just how many times government cheese will be mentioned

That may be (if your experience was like mine) you tried to watch it and. . .

Well Quaid has claimed to be Independent and has voted for both Republicans and Democrats. But he's also stated that Regan was his favorite president. So I doubt he would have participated if this was going to be a hit piece.
