U.S. Sen. George Allen, R-Va., and other political leaders appear briefly as extras in the movie.

R-Va. Well wouldn't you know that those racist Republicans would appear in a movie like this. Thankfully, you'd never see a Democratic Senator in a movie of this sort! </sarcasm>

A "movie of this sort" is about the only decent thing Ted Turner has done since he won the America's Cup in my view.

I have not seen it. I hear it is not nauseatingly PC. I hope that is true. Duvall would appear to be a great choice.
