Trivia:
Producers had set up filming in Toronto in 2003 when the SARS outbreak hit the town. They were forced to scratch nearly all their preparations and move filming to Montreal. They had to find new locations, hire a Montreal-based crew, and import English-speaking actors from Toronto and New York. The last-minute switch cost about $1.5 million, which they made up by cuts from the script and sets.

Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In the debate between President Carter and Reagan the voice the actor uses is completely wrong. Carter had a very distinctive southern drawl.

Quotes:
President Ronald Reagan:
If you don't mind, this administration has to pee.

In spite of the flack from the RNC and conservatives all over the country, this film was about as controversial as "Bambi." Left alone, no one would even remember seeing it a year from now.
Far from being a "tell-all," it was handled almost lovingly. Brolin did a fairly decent *impression* of Ronnie, though never quite believable. Over the course of a couple of hours, Davis actually becomes Nancy.
The striking thing about the storyline is that Ron's Alzheimer's was spotted very early on by Nancy, and actually gives a new slant to the hazy "I don't remember" days of the Presidency.
Though certainly not as bad as predicted, it's still a long way from something I would recommend. If you're over 30, you'll get a kick out of it. The Al Hague sequences are hysterical!
Watch this movie only if you have 3 hours to kill late some night.
