6. Any president should host a screening like this!

But I'm glad it's President Obama.



Also, you can't beat that pedigree -- a film with a script from Tony Kushner, based to some degree on a book by Doris Kearns Goodwin, directed by Steven Spielberg and featuring Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones, David Strathairn, Hal Holbrook, and others.

9. DDL said in an interview the day after the election ...

... that he was exhausted from having stayed up all night watching the returns on CNN, and that he was so pleased that POTUS got re-elected.

I simply some DDL. :drool: :drool:

10. Very pleased to hear that!

I didn't know he'd actually weighed in on the election.

11. Daniel Day-Lewis is going to love that

Saw that "empty chair" speech when he won at Bafta - sounded like he'd never met the Prez. He's going to love it. Hope we see some footage of it!
