Mr President, tear down this ticket stub! It is not anywhere near the shock that it used to be for an actor or media figure to run for President of the United States but it was definitely history made when the former Hollywood actor Ronald Reagan became President. In this episode we compare and discuss two of Reagan's films. The first one we look at is the 1940 western Santa Fe Trail which Reagan co-starred in alongside Errol Flynn and Olivia de Havilland. We then look at the 1950 comedy Louisa where Reagan plays a father and son dealing with situation that many audiences even now would find relatable. We hope you enjoy the program and thank you for listening.
