Oliver Stone’s film follows George W. Bush from his drifting younger years to the White House, tracing his family life, religious turn, and political rise before narrowing to the days leading up to the Iraq invasion. Josh Brolin is Bush, seen here as son of privilege, recovering drinker, husband, and commander in chief. Flashbacks connect key moments in his personal and political life, moving from his wilder early years toward the decisions that define his presidency. James Cromwell, Ellen Burstyn, and Jeffrey Wright are among the figures in Bush’s family and inner circle as the story closes in on Washington.
