W's Folks on Film

Variety reported today that Oliver Stone has cast James Cromwell and Ellen Burstyn to play George H.W. and Barbara Bush (respectively, I think - unless Stone isn't going to push the limits of all reason) in his upcoming film "W" about you-know-who. Josh Brolin is playing the lead. Filming begins in April, and release is expected before Bush leaves office.

I wonder if there will be a special screening in the Oval office. I'm sure Oliver Stone and President Bush have a lot to talk about. Like both being Vietnam vets.

Oh wait, I guess not.
