My favorite ever movie about a President is Secret Honor, a one-man film of Philip Baker Hall who has never been better as Richard Nixon drunkenly monologuing into a tape recorder about his life and career, giving a picture of a complex if ultimately evil person. Directed by the great Robert Altman. Re-watching now, in a #Criterion DVD.

In einem Jahr, das auch filmhistorisch zwischen Aufbruch und Abgrund lag, hat dieser Film Roman Polański 1968 endgültig zu einer Schlüsselfigur des internationalen Kinos gemacht. Zuvor hatte der in Paris geborene und in Polen aufgewachsene Regisseur schon mit „Das Messer im Wasser“ (1962) und „Ekel“ (1965) gezeigt, dass er das Spiel mit psychologischem Druck und räumlicher Enge meisterhaft beherrscht.

Der reiche Sir William McCordle hat Freunde zu einem Jagdwochenende eingeladen. Die zahllosen Bediensteten machen sich ein Bild von dieser illustren, betuchten – und tödlichen – Gesellschaft. Mit diesem beißenden Whodunit (2001) überzeugt Robert Altman einmal mehr, was mit einem Oscar für das beste Originaldrehbuch und einem Golden Globe für die beste Regie ausgezeichnet wurde.
Some amazing soul uploaded the director's commentary of CALIFORNIA SPLIT to YouTube. Robert Altman, Elliott Gould, George Segal, and Joe Walsh.
Most Hollywood comedies are painfully counter-funny, Hollywood movie humor is generally unintentional and a consequence of stupidity.
Two genuinely humorous films are in genres Hollywood doesn't do well, namely satire and farce. For the former, Robert Altman's delightful, anarchic "OC and Stiggs"; for the latter, Paul Bartel's magnificent "Scenes from the Class Struggle in Beverly Hills".
