W.

I just saw Oliver Stone's W. I've been very curious about this movie and have been anticipating it with a mix of dread and doubt. I just couldn't see how a good movie could be made about an event so current that there coulndt possibly be enough information known to make the film accurate.In the decades to come we are going to learn all the terrible shit that this awful Presidency has done. Stone doesn't strive for accuracy. That's never been his bag.

Well I didn't hate it. I didn't really feel anything. All of the actors turn in great performances, especially an almost unrecognizeable Richard Dryfuss. He should get a best supporting actor nod come oscar time.

I would say that the most enjoyable and most insightful element is the relationship between George Sr and Jr.

This is all so fresh in my mind. As I write this James Cromwell is giving a Q and A.

My favorite thing about it is that they don't paint Bush as an evil person. Josh Brolin plays him as a charming oaf who just simply not fit to be a president. He is controlled by people who are far smarter and greedier than himself. I don't think Bush is evil. I think he's a terrible president.

Go see W. Make up your own mind. I have a feeling that it will fade from memory in the next ten years or so, a historical relic that is neither great nor terrible.
