That crazy sumbitch Oliver Stone is really going through with it, isn’t it? Stone’s George W. Bush biopic W is officially underway and we’ve got the pictures to prove it. Well, Entertainment Weekly’s got ‘em, along with an in-depth article on the controversy swirling around the first ever movie about a sitting president. Have a look at Josh Brolin, (nearly unrecognizable is he) and have a look at Elizabeth Banks, the handsomest faux first couple we ever did see.
As the president of the United States, you have the privilege of making a lot of decisions, even the executive ones. Unfortunately for George W. Bush, one decision that won’t be his is who gets to direct the story of his life. That man is going to be Oliver Stone, and although the left-leaning filmmaker claims he has “empathy for Bush as a human being,” we’re not entirely sold that his film W will be the straightforward biopic he’s insisting.
