HOLLYWOOD — Politics is not my dish of tea. I write about the movies and love them. But I was knee deep in governors, senators and their wives while attending the Republican National Convention in Chicago and I had a chance to talk with a few of these leading politicos. I found out just what they thought of our motion pictures.
It disturbs me that politicians were choosing films for their “educational” value, when we all know how fast and loose Hollywood plays with history. Though it does sound as if these people are more interested in having their kids imbibe a particular ideal of America, than actual truth.
