Well, too bad.
Fresh off spectacular reviews for his Sundance film “The Spectacular Now,” James Ponsoldt is attached to direct “Rodham,” an indie movie about Hillary Clinton’s early years, TheWrap has learned.
Written by up-and-coming screenwriter Young Il Kim, “Rodham” placed fourth on the 2012 Black List. Set during the height of the Watergate scandal, the story follows rising star Hillary Rodham, the youngest lawyer chosen for the House Judiciary Committee to Impeach Nixon, who finds herself forced to choose between a destined path to the White House and her unresolved feelings for former boyfriend Bill Clinton, who is teaching law in Arkansas…
Ponsoldt has had good luck unearthing gems from the Black List, which catalogs Hollywood’s best unproduced screenplays.
Sounds like a winner. This is sure to be a box-office smash.
Incidentally, Hillary was also fired from that committee for unethical behavior, but I doubt that’ll make the shooting draft. Couldn’t fit the narrative less, could it?
She’ll probably be played by Jennifer Lawrence, right? As for Bill, I’m thinking… Seth Rogen? Jonah Hill? It has to be somebody who can deeply inhale and then lie about it unconvincingly.
That’s the way, Hollywood. Line up and help usher Hillary into the Oval Office in 2016. Like good little drones.
I would rather listen to the tapes of an interview back around 1970, on Dickson Street in Fayetteville Arkansas.
A co-worker once worked in a radio news department and, during an ant-VN war protest, interviewed a naked man in a tree by the name of William Jefferson Clinton.
I tried to get him to release those tapes back in 1992 but he stalled and stalled till too late.
what are you talking about??
heck 1- it will support a lot of out of work actresses
gennifer flowers, juanita bgrodderick, kathlyn willey, monica and about a thousand more.
2-Seeing bill apologize for all the bimbo eruptions could be more interesting than a lot of other things
Not just no, but HELL no.
Flour power!!!
I wonder if the love scenes will be faked?
I heard that they had the same girlfriend in college...it’s what I heard anyway.
Hmmm...
LOL! Hollywood will never top that! :)
