Have you guys seen the trailer for The Butler?

It sounds very promising to me. I like movies about American history and presidents, and this movie sees it all from an interesting perspective. As it based on a true story there might be a good deal of authenticity in it. I am not familiar with the director though, so not entirely sure what to expect.

Judging from the trailer, I am a bit worried about the likeness of some of the actors, although it's a minor issue of the performances are good.

Is this a film about Captain Kirk's dog?

Alternatively, you could watch "Washington Behind Closed Doors".
