I figured it would be Ellen DeGeneres. At least she wouldn't be offended by all the laughter.

I wonder if they're going to have any lesibian scenes? Like "between the shelves at Yale."

Did Hillary know Nancy Pelosi back then?

How do you think they'll dramatize the part about travelgate, or that time she just happened
to find those subpoenaed documents on the counter ?? I wonder how they'll do that part where she is being questioned about the Benghazi incident ? It also might be interesting to see how those secret health care meetings went down back when Bill was the pres.

Interesting. The first time I saw Rebecca de Mornay, I thought that she was a natural to play Hillary Clinton (just as I knew the obvious actor to play Oscar Wilde the instant I first saw Stephen Fry). But that would only have worked if someone had wanted to make a film about HC back at the time of 'The Hand that Rocks the Cradle' or soon after.

Funny-first time I saw Rebecca was in Risky Business and I wanted to bang her seven ways til Sunday.

ETA-Wasn't she in Fast Times?I could swear she was but IMBD disagrees...

Actually, I think I think it was the other way around. The first time I saw Hillary Clinton, I thought Rebecca would be the ideal actress to play her. I also always thought that Donald Pleasance was perfect for Heinrich Himmler and when I heard that Sally Fields would be playing Mary Todd Lincoln, my response was, "No better choice."

As for NBC filming this to air in the next Presidential Election year, I'm sure it will be as fair and unbiased as having James Brolin play Ronald Reagan or having Oliver Stone make a movie about George W. Bush. God knows, none of these people have axes to grind.

Stephen Fry was an excellent Oscar Wilde. There was once talk of
a movie about Wilde with Liam Neeson playing him and Hugh Grant
playing Bosie ( this was in Hugh's ingenue days) I think that could
have been interesting.

I'm sure Diane will do a good job Mrs Clinton. Hope Davis wasn't
bad in The Special Friendship. I thought Michael Sheen
made a spot on Tony Blair and Helen McCrory a very good Cherie.
Dennis Quaid was good as Bill to.

You obviously haven't seen much of the crap they're putting out now. From what I've seen, it appears that only the uninterested, the uninformed and the braindead DO have anything to do with film making.
