Oliver Stone - W

Ok, Oliver Stone is finishing up the last part of "W" the story of George W. Bush and the Bush Republican Administration - it will likely be told from a fairly interesting perspective.

Oliver Stone travelled in similiar Ivy League circles to George W. Bush, when he was in college - they are also both addictive personalities. Bush was a male cheerleader in college and likely acquired his partying habits as a fraternity brother at Yale. Stone, also a Yalie - wasn't a cheerleader nor was he the kind of hard drinking fraternity brother that Bush likely was - his introduction to the world of altered states of consciousness came through his tenure in the First Cav over in Vietnam. His first film was the 1971 "First Year in Vietnam" which he shot when he returned to Yale.

Meanwhile Bush had graduated and was busy running a company "Arbusto" - spanish for the word "Bush" ... in Texas. He later returned to Harvard to finish his MBA.

Stone's father was rumoured to be the Model for the main character in the film "Wall Street". "Greed is Good". Of course, Bush's dad was rumoured to be a President of the United States but the records here deserved to be checked on that one.

This should be an interesting film. Remember to be objective, and to enjoy it. I bet at least part of this film will be autobiographical in nature - with Stone exploring himself as much as he is, his subject.
