Review of Hyde Park on Hudson (2012) by Spencer S — 07 Jul 2013

Great dramatic performance by bill murray which just shows how much of an all around actor he is and also another great dramatic performance by laura linney. the film is better than what critics have said about the film and I wonder if critics were negative on the film because it shows fdr with the crippling polio that he did have but wasn't shown back then and also shows just how seperate lives eleanor and franklin lived as well as hinting towards eleanor's lesbianism and showing the extramarital affairs that fdr did have.

I think that the liberal hollywood critics don't like a film that actually shows the truth about the progressive liberal president that they idolize. all in all, it is a great film with a lot of truth to be told and maybe even showing a bit of insight as to the times of fdr as well as the time when the newly coronated king of england came to america to visit and ask for america's help in the pending war against nazi germany.

and the friendship that grew between fdr and king george.
