There is nothing funny about Alzheimer’s, and yet someone in Hollywood pitched the idea that doing a Ronald Reagan movie, starring Will Ferrell, would be just what the entertainment world needed. For those across the nation who have had a loved one succumb to Alzheimer’s, the very idea of satirizing the disease is beyond the pale.
The film, labeled as a comedy, would have satirized the “tragic battle” that President Reagan faced with the disease. It was to be based off the 2015 Black List script, which focuses a fictional story of Reagan winning re-election by a landslide and then soon after beginning the descent into dementia. In the film, a Reagan aide must persuade the President that he is an actor, playing the President in a movie.
Will Ferrell, under the banner of Gary Sanchez Productions, was to film and produce the work.
However, there has been so much blowback from the announcement that Ferrell has backed off.
Read the letter that Patti Davis, Reagan’s daughter wrote to Ferrell on the next page.
How could he have ever thought that it was unny? Go to an alzheimer’s ward and see if you’re giggling on your way out. Vile person.
You were a baby, and you remember what a liberal told you? Look up the facts, brother.
Hillary is a monster! She’ll do anything for power! Her lack of ethics is a major problem. She has never succeeded on anything while in politics.
Never Hillary, Obama’s legacy of spinning the facts to suit his needs. Like labor statistics. Obama is a joke
We should use this video on why we shouldn’t have a REPUBLICAN with Alzheimer’s for president! !!!!
too late for him.. to ever consider it puts him on my black list.
Good good let the evil flow through you!
It Would Literally Of Been The End Of Him!!!!! Good Move Will Ferrell !!!!!
You are a fool David Saldana. Would you go put your head back in the dark hole it’s been in since you were a baby and leave the rest of us to continue with the truth? Fools shouldn’t be able to procreate and it’s a shame that you will be spreading your lack of knowledge onto others that you come into contact with.
With Her Mentor KKK Recruiter Robert Byrd….. Yeah Great Choice There Asshat!!!!!
