Movies about Lyndon Johnson (and his admin)?
Edited on Sun Jan-25-04 04:18 PM by einniv
Hi,

I recently read a thread here about the "Fog of War" about Robert McNamara. And I am now trying to remember the name of another movie about Johnson that I saw.

I got to thinking and I remember seeing a movie about the Johnson administration within the last few years. Saw it on cable I believe and, if I remember right, it came out shortly after his tapes(or more of them anyway) were released. It of course had someone playing McNamara but it was more about Johnson so I am thinking it is a different thing than this Fog of War movie.

I can't remember if it was made by HBO film or what the deal was. It wasn't a documentary.. it had actors not stock footage and such. Can anyone help me to refresh my memory?

1. "Path to War"...
I remember watching it a while back. If I remember correctly Alec Baldwin played McNamara... It was pretty good.

2. Thank you so much!
That is the one. I knew there was at least one "big name" in but couldn't remember.

Thanks again!

3. I want to say...
there was one with Randy Quaid playing LBJ.....

Perhaps it was just called "LBJ?" A check with imdb might produce results, but I'm lazy right now.
