I admit: when I first heard about Oliver Stone’s biopic about the famous former (and future) Dallas resident and amateur librarian, I thought they casted the roles too young. But after looking at the cover, and the closeup of Josh Brolin here, I have to say, I’m intrigued.
I am, however, still holding out hope that the always-awesome Elizabeth Banks’ take on Laura Bush is somewhere in the ballpark of her character from The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Because that would be great.
He looks constipated. Can I just say that? Because he does.
Of course he looks constipated. Brolin is OBVIOUSLY a method actor and is really getting into the idea that Bush is full of……well, you know.
(crowd chanting at premiere) “Elba! Elba! Elba”
Anybody could play George Bush. All you have to do is squint and say “nuculur.” Or at least everybody who does a Bush impersonation seems to think that does the trick.
I’m pretty disenchanted with the Bush Administration, but is there anybody who thinks this is going to be anything except a carpet bombing campaign of a movie? Micheal Moore might direct a more balanced film.
Wes, I think that you are spot on with this one.
Your friend,
