"King" Size Entertainment: 
I am not a fan of Ronald Reagan on any level, but the one movie I've always heard talk about when discussing Reagan as an actor has been "Kings Row" the movie filmbuffs reserve as one of Reagan's best films.
I saw this movie mainly for two reasons. The first being, it's one of my grandmother's favorite movies, the other, the death of the former President.
"Kings Row" is quite an accomplised film from director Sam Wood, a man who has directed serval American classics that would take up too much space... more info
A grim soap opera with Ronald Reagan's finest performance: 
"King's Row" is the most distinguished film of Ronald Reagan's actor career, for which he drew his best reviews.

Wow! What a job Reagan does!:
I've always been a big fan of Reagan the President, but I studiously avoided Reagan the Actor. I had seen just one movie of his - ironically, "Bedtime for Bonzo" - and while it was a cute little romp, I didn't walk away from it, bowled over by Reagan's acting ability.
TCM had a Reaganfest this week because of the president's death, so I tuned in to see "King's Row." All I can say is WOW! I seriously underestimated him!
Not only is Reagan handsome, he steals the movie! You can find out the plot details... more info
