Oliver Stone plans to make a “fair and balanced” movie about George W. Bush
Woo hoo!
Director Oliver Stone, who has made movies about
Presidents John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, is developing a project about the
current occupant of the White House, but
promises it will not be a hatchet
job.
He is shopping the script to financiers and hopes to start production by April, with a release date in time for the election in November, or the inauguration of Bush’s successor in January.
Stone told Daily Variety that he planned to make “a fair, true portrait” of Bush, focusing on such areas as his relationship with his father, President George H.W. Bush, his wild youth, and his conversion to Christianity.
“It will contain surprises for Bush supporters and his detractors,” said Stone.
Telling the truth will be embarrassing enough!
