orejones,Did you know that Ronald Reagan was also credited under the name "Elvis Reagan"- doesn't that form some powerful images quickly?
Reagan is listed as having been in 60 movies- that's quite a career given he went to TV in the 50's and then political life in the early 60's. I always imagine he was easy to work with- non-temperamental, made friends in the front office well, and therefore did well under the old studio contract system.
While a Democrat and actor, he was prez of the SAG, which he seemed proud of, though I've never heard anything about his tenure in that position. Have you? His attitude towards unions made a serious shift later on and it would be interesting to see how that corresponds to his other political evolutions.
I never found his movie roles to be objectionable, but at the same time, not terribly memorable, a bit flat in the affect, and not truly passionate. He always seemed too amiable and quiet to successfully play the tough guy or soldier/leader type.
Waht a strange two-tiered life he had! But this is the point at which a discussion of Reagan would have to shift from Films to Outside..
Cheers,
