Jeffrey Wright, who's usually a good actor, gave one of the films worst performances. He was supposed to avoid making Colin Powell a characture. The woman who played Condoleezza Rice was even worse. The director, Oliver Stone, should've gotten on them.
@Beale64 I understand there is a problem with the code those two particular performances embrace. And I agree it doesn't seem to fit with the overall tone of the scene... but I'm pretty sure it's deliberate. "W" is a satire with unexpected shifts of code, from parody to "oh my God, that's so true". Stone took risks with this one... and you can like it or not, but you have to praise his balls. I think Oliver Stone is a genius. And I don't even have to agree with his political views.
I thought "W" was flawed, but this scene gave me chills... mostly because it's true

Bush doesn't have much input to contribute. Some leader he was...
