Did you see "The Reagans" on Showtime?
Great movie, I'll have to watch it again and again. I missed a few parts because I was chatting with my fiancé. I don't know what all the hype was for though. It just had stuff that everyone already knew. Nancy as the pill popping, power-hungry manipulating bitch pushing Reagan on, and Reagan as the well-intentioned, empty-headed, simpleton who followed his wife’s strict demands without knowing he was doing purely evil things. Reagan publicly complained and railed against "large government" for decades and then spent more money than all of his predecessors combined.
The Reagans are a prefect example of the old saying, "The road to hell is paved with good intentions.", at least in Ronnie's case.
