Trivia

After announcing the biopic by the ABC Donald Trump officially said that he would sue the movie makers. After watching the movie with his wife Melania he said that he was flattered by the film and it was a great compliment, even if a few facts were wrong, like Peter Wennik, who was a fictitious character. He praised Justin Louis' performance saying that "he did a very excellent job. I just really wish he were my height". Melania also enjoyed the movie but said that the movie brought nothing new since Trumps life "is an open book and there were no surprises". See more »

Justin Louis Great!!....Sen. John Kerry Role??
25 May 2005 | by adamsys-1See all my reviews

Justin Louis was great playing a brash yuppie: Donald Trump. I truly enjoyed this TV movie.

Watching Justin Louis made me think that if someone makes a movie about the 2004 Presidential Race, he is a shoe in for Senatory John Kerry. Louis has that narrow head and sunken-in eyes. He has shown that he can play someone who contradicts himself yet sound like all is normal; that was Kerry's undoing unfortunately.

Louis already shows he can play a Northeast type of accent. He can have that anger and calculation.

I guess he can play almost any politician come to think of it.

I voted for Bush if anyone is wondering.
