Millhouse: A White Comedy
Edited on Sun Jul-25-04 09:40 AM by cosmicdot
If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it.



Seeing Nixon holding up microfilm is mindful of Powell holding up a vial of baby powder.

Nixon helped to create the mold.

He'd criticize the media to their faces that that didn't report what he said, and the same time project fantasy which he stated as fact in hopes that that is what they would publish.

His giving a full financial accounting (the Checkers Speech) with Pat looking on is classic: no life insurance, $4000 in the bank, no stocks & bonds, etc. Pat doesn't have a mink coat, but she does have a respectable Republican cloth coat.

His you won't have Nixon to kick around speech seemed to never get around to the point ... he never seemed to know when to cut it off (or, shut up) ...

"MILLHOUSE is certainly a funny film but...the full horror of Nixon's personality makes it a shattering experience." - Film Reviews

1. This film should be required viewing for every voter
or potential voter. It shows how Tricky smeared his way to victory in early elections and what a disingenuous jerk he was. This is a film much like F-9/11 in that respect.
