Sam Taylor-Johnson, who directed Fifty Shades of Grey

So it will be boring, like Fifty Shades was.

Thriller? I’ll bet they want to cover this up so it will actually be a “murder mystery”.

How can it be a true story if it portrays Ted Kennedy as having a moral compass?

Lindsay Crouse is 67 years old.
A little long in the tooth to play a chick Teddy would have scored.

You should know this one... Bob Rivers, Teddy the Red Nosed Senator.

Hope that they use Howie Carr for a fact checker (sign of spring, the Kennedy’s are out driving on the sidewalks)

“Everyone has an idea of what happened on Chappaquiddick and this strings together the events in a compelling and emotional way. You’ll see what he had to go through.”

POOR POOR Teddy Kennedy. It’s so tough for him. How was he going to have his Nazi loving criminal daddy going to save his butt from leaving some unattended issue behind his car that sunk below the water.

And let’s see how many of Ted’s own jokes about killing that girl, and getting away with it, make it in to the movie. will Portuguese water dogs make a prominent appearance?

That’s what I figure. I wonder how far they think they can get away with straying from the truth-that the drunken Kennedy stumbled his way out of the car and down the road, with nary a thought for the woman he left to drown? I wonder how they’ll manage to spin a “struggle with his moral compass” from that?

Yeah, he had a real moral dilemma on his hands-whether to leave Mary Jo quickly, or say goodbye before leaving her to drown alone?

I didn't know he had one.

His moral compass was in the bottom of the next bottle.

They will say the true story is that a radical Republican agreed to drive both Ted and Mary Jo home. En route the waschly Republican schemed how to destroy Ted’s career. So he stopped the car near the bridge and both men got out to see if the bridge was passable. The Pub tackled Kennedy and threw him into the water. He then got in the car, floored the gas pedal and launched the car off to Mary Jo’s death. It was all a Republican scheme to make a wonderful democrat look bad. Kennedy never mentioned what really happened because this Pub had even more damaging evidence on him.

Chappaquiddick is political thriller that unveils the true story of what is described as the seven most dramatic days of Senator Ted Kennedy's life.

This is going to be the absolutely and positively true story of the brave and intrepid skipper of the SS Oldsmobile ... who swam ten miles through freezing shark-infested waters ... uphill -- both ways ... battling alligators and piranhas ... and five tribes of wild Indians ... in a fruitless attempt to save the life of the innocent virgin ...

The definitive book on Chappaquiddick was written several years ago.

“Senatorial Privilege” will make your blood boil.

He named the dog “Splash” and probably had hundreds of laughs with his friends about it.

How much more disgusting can you get?

or say goodbye before leaving her to drown alone?

Or sing the Bob Hope song "Thanks for the Mammaries".

Mary Jo: “Teddy, I am pregnant...”

Ted Kennedy: “We’ll cross that bridge when we get there...”
