May need to re-watch 1993's Dave with Kevin Kline and Sigourney Weaver. Directed by Ivan Reitman, it's a good, light hearted comedy that manages to do the impossible - make you feel good about politics. A bit cheesy but highly recommended. 👍 ★★★★☆

Hail to the Chief
he’s the one we all say hail to! 🎶
We all say hail because he keeps himself so clean.
He’s got the power,
that’s why he’s in the shower…

@gedeonm A while back when I wanted to watch a cozy movie it was between this and The American President. I chose The American President, but I think my next cozy watch will be Dave. 🙂

@jezlyn The American President is another great one. I do love that film. “America is advanced citizenship, you gotta want it bad.” 👍🥰

@gedeonm It led me to do a full rewatch of The West Wing. 😀

@gedeonm Absolute Classic.

@gedeonm the only thing that really clangs with me in this movie is when he invites Charles Grodin to the White House to solve the budget and he has some classic idiot line of “if I ran my business this way” and then they solve the federal budget in like 4 hours.

Since I learned so much more about how government funding and tax policy actually work, it drives me nuts to hear anything that claims that you can fix government by treating it like a business.

@HitokiriEric Yep, I agree. Also the film’s villains seem positively milk toast compared to our current government. But I’m willing to suspend disbelief cause it’s great.

@gedeonm yeah. And it is always delightful to see Calvin Fischoeder in the flesh. Dude’s great.

@gedeonm this is what I did the night of the last election. Such a great feel-good movie. I’d vote for Dave any day.
