Well. I would never have picked this movie. Good thing The Sweetie is in charge of the movies we get from NetFlix! Okay. I might have picked it because I like watching Bill Murray and Laura Linney.
We watched it late last night. I thought that might be a problem because I have worked through the night several times in the last 10 days. I didn't think I could make it through a movie. Was I wrong.
Laura seems to play the same sort of character -- a slightly overwhelmed woman without much of a clue. Her character in this movie was not unlike her character in The Truman Show.
I would not have thought that Bill could pull of the role of FDR. Not because of his skills, but because he just doesn't quite look the part. Didn't matter. He was great in the role. Fabulous. I was sorry the movie ended because I wanted more of this character. Really.
I could have done with less of the relationship drama. I could have had more of Eleanor. I never get enough of Eleanor.
This movie stirred a desire to see The King's Speech again.
A very solid 3 out of 5.
