Quote by Ron Fournier
Hollywood has a history of raising expectations beyond Washington's reach, of appealing to the very American desire to mythologize political leaders, particularly the president.
Summary
This quote highlights the tendency of Hollywood to portray political leaders, particularly the president, in a mythological and idealized manner, often surpassing the realistic capabilities of real-life politicians. It suggests that Hollywood plays into the American desire to elevate and idolize its political figures, creating a certain level of unattainable expectations for those in power. This can lead to a skewed perception of political leaders and their abilities, potentially blurring the line between fiction and reality in the realm of politics.
