Fascinating movie about the President's first date with the First Lady


😃

I saw it today and it is a sweet movie. Surprised that it held my attention because they do a lot of talking.

I liked it, too. I kept thinking he was going to be President and she was going to be the First Lady, and isn't it fascinating how they started out just regular young people, though very smart and well educated, struggling to find their niche in life and with each other. I think the filmmakers paid pretty close attention to details of their lives, too, because I knew a lot of the facts that came out but not all of them, so that was lovely. I've admired him since 2004, and her since I got to know her in the first campaign. I'll certainly miss this charismatic couple in the White House although I imagine we'll still get their insights once in awhile what with their living right there in DC.
