Review of Hyde Park on Hudson (2012) by Steve T — 20 Oct 2013

You may have to suspend disbelief as to the historical accuracy of this film but Bill Murray's performance makes this worth seeing. Bill Murray got a Golden Globe nomination as FDR although I have to wonder if it is a creation influenced by Groucho Marx when I look at the newsreels of the real FDR - other than this criticism, I do not understand why it got so much flack from the critics unless they are hung up on the fact that the historical premise is based on speculation, innuendo, and rumor.

If so, again I say, suspend disbelief.
