      didn't know about Lyndon B Johnson before watching the movie. In this way, the Underwood character in House of Cards was born out of him and came from a commoner. Doing the party whip, enlightenment, and power, or straight to the point, or knocking on the sidelines, manipulating the votes, power is very arrogant. The wife is not waiting. Become a VP, and eventually become president.

      Kennedy didn't get into his eyes so...

      Not a film review, a little random thought

      Because I am fucking him! ... No, I am not fucking him. I am Him! Hahahaha, who came up with this kind of lines?

      At the beginning, I was delighted by this passage. I first watched the 2018 "Vice President", the protagonist is Cheney. Maybe Cheney’s own experience is a bit similar to LBJ, so the first half thinks the two movies are too similar. Could it be just like "Invisible Guest" and "Dead No Contradictions", copy and paste?

      After...

      3.5. The movie clearly elevated the role of Kennedy as a supporting role, and even overwhelmed the protagonist, making this movie not called "Linden Johnson" but "John Kennedy". In fact, it is understandable that as far as Kennedy's status in the United States is, no one would buy him as a pure supporting...

    Movie quotes

    • Lyndon B. Johnson: [walking right up to his face] We've been talking about this forever, and we never say a damn thing.

      Senator Richard Russell: Well-a, What? What do you wanna say? That you're gonna turn your back on me? That you don't care about everything I've done for you? That you're willing to betray me?

      Lyndon B. Johnson: That you're a racist.

    • Malcolm: Sir... the American people need to know that President Kennedy has died.

      Lyndon B. Johnson: On April 14th, 1865, two men attempted to kill Secretary of State William Seward stabbing him in his home. At the same time, another assassin was on his way to take the life of Vice President Andrew Johnson. This was the same night that John Wilkes Booth shot Abraham Lincoln. We don't know the extent of this conspiracy or who's behind it. Malcolm, you're to announce President Kennedy's death, only after the rest of us are safely onboard that plane. Otherwise, you're gonna make these boys' jobs a whole hell of a lot harder.

    • Lyndon B. Johnson: You know, about a year ago, my private cook Mrs. Wright, who you know was driving from here down to the ranch in Texas. So I asked her if she would mind bringing my dog, Little Beagle Johnson, with her in order that he could be there when I got home. Mrs. Wright respectfully declined. She said it is hard enough for a black woman driving through the South without having a dog to worry about. Finding a place to eat, to sleep, to use the restroom. The personal cook of the vice president of the United States has to drive through towns without stopping , then squat to pee by the side of the road. Hundred years ago, she would've been a slave. Hundred years from now, hell, she might be... president. But today, we live in a time of too much uncertainty. Where can she eat? Where can she sleep? Can she vote? And if she does, will she be harassed for casting that vote? Can she attend school? If so, which school? Can she travel the cities and towns of this land without fearing for her safety? What rights that belong to the men in this room should not be afforded to her?
