    You could watch that and then watch Path to War with Michael Gambon as LBJ and have yourself some damn good history.

    Plus Gary Sinise reprises his role as Gov. George Wallace.
    Path To War is good as I recall. Sinise, really? Don't recall that.

    • He shows up briefly when LBJ goes to work his "magic" on Wallace in the Oval Office.

      • LBJ was a bit of a bastard as I recall. Not quite as sympathetic as he is portrayed in the movie.

        • To know LBJ means you'll have to read Robert Caro's books on him. I've only read one of them and there's a reason why each one is huge.

          He's just a very very complicated man.

          • Just have a vague memory of something pretty dirty he did campaigning as a congressman or something.

            • You're thinking of his 1948 campaign for the Senate. That's explained in excrutiating detail in Caro's second book. That race which was between Johnson and a governor by the name of Coke Stevenson was one of the dirtiest campaigns ever. Johnson won by less than a hundred votes I think even though it was apparent that it was illegal.

              There's that and his cooked up stories as to how he got the silver star.

                • All sorts of shit like that.

                  Plus, LBJ used a helicopter.

                              Seen it. Ever notice that the U-2 pilot is Chip Esten, the boss of the Stamford Branch on The Office.
