About

An acclaimed romantic-drama penned by Aaron Sorkin, The American President follows Commander-in-chief Andrew Shepherd (Michael Douglas) as he prepares to run for a second term. After he falls for environmental lobbyist Sydney Ellen Wade (Annette Bening) during the campaign, he finds it increasingly difficult to separate his personal life from his obligations to the nation. A sumptuous romance featuring lavish cinematography from John Seale and an Oscar-nominated score from Marc Shaiman, Rob Reiner's film is a tale of blossoming love in the most famous home in the United States.

The American President will screen from an imported 35mm print.
