Oliver Stone's take on the day Reagan was shot

Subtitled: "Better Luck Next Time."

A movie on Showtime, playing Sunday and Monday.

Executive producer: Oliver Stone. Thank God I don't get Showtime.

The call went out to makeup artists with sufficient skill to portray the Reagan administration members in the way Stone thought they should be.

Fortunately, I have been able to use my connections in the film industry to get some sneak shots of Stone's test makeup from the film:

A typical Republican, probably Richard Dreyfuss as Alexander Haig. Note the clever use of elevator shoes.

I think this is Leon Pownell as Ed Meese, but I'm not sure.
