This is a behind the scenes look at Ronald Reagan & the people around him. See how Reagan dealt with world leaders & the issues of the day. Dennis Quaid does a great job portraying Reagan capturing his mannerisms, voice, & speech patterns. The film is also kind of a history lesson detailing the current events of those times.
