Johnson, John Cusack as Richard M. Nixon, and Alan Rickman as Ronald Reagan.

ReviewsThe New York Times - A brilliantly truthful film on a subject that is usually shrouded in wishful thinking, mythmongering and outright denial., Chicago Sun-Times - This is an important film presented as mainstream entertainment. ItÆs a great American story., Boston Globe - The Butler is a remarkable, even exhilarating movie not for its inherent Gump-itude but for the social portrait that gimmick allows.
