OK, I must see this entire movie now. Looks wonderful. Kenneth Branaugh always gives good performances but it looks like he knocks it out of the park in this one.
Just got back from Warm Springs this weekend. I had seen this movie before I went there. It made the trip that much more special. I highly recommend all who can, go see Warm Springs. Its a very cute town,in one way it seems that Roosevelt never left.
One of my good friends is in this movie. Her name's Georgia. She played Roosevelt's daughter. I remember when I first met her in 9th grade when I moved to Warm Springs, I couldn't get over the fact that she was in this movie! But she's a very real person. Now, I actually live 5 miles away from Warm Springs, in Manchester, GA.
I adore this miniseries. Yes, so true that Kenneth Branagh became FDR. I am about due to watch this again. He's so human, connecting with the people like himself. I loved when he nursed the boy in the box car. I have a disability and can relate to this film entirely. A very touching performance. He should have won the Emmy for this film.
Thank you for posting! so moving, makes you want to get up & do something great: if he could overcome his condition, so can you. And, of course, Ken Branagh is such a complete actor, you believe he IS FDR. Genuine and true performance!

While he was walking, I suffered; during ovations I was glad.
FDR has such a terrible and wonderful life!
KB's performance has a strenght that hurts me.
Once more, thank you Tediousoldfools!
