Movies.com compiled a list of the presidential wannabes favorite movies, I thought they were pretty funny. Here's what they said:
They're all wooing Hollywood — and the latest to enter the race was even (gasp!) an actor. So, we wondered, what movies do they really watch on a quiet Saturday night. We didn't ask; they didn't tell. Here's what we think the main candidates' top picks should be, and why!
RUDY GIULIANI (former mayor)
World Trade Center (2006)
"Didn't have enough of a certain strong, unwavering mayor, but all in all, very moving — and very effective at fundraising."
HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
(U.S. Senator)
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
"Jimmy Stewart is wonderful as a principled man who speaks his mind even after winning election to the Senate. My all-time favorite science-fiction movie."
JOHN McCAIN (U.S. Senator)
Hostel (2005)
"My fellow GOP contenders think torture's a nifty idea. I think they should watch this movie — and then imagine it lasting for six long years in a POW camp in 'Nam. Still sound nifty?"
BARACK OBAMA (U.S. Senator)
Hitch (2005)
"Will Smith is the best. I can't get enough of how he turns a stiff Kevin James into one cool dude. Hmmm, wonder if he's available for consultations?"
FRED THOMPSON
(actor, former U.S. Senator)
In the Line of Fire (1993)
"A crackerjack thriller; plus, I get to be the White House chief of staff, establishing my credibility as an Oval Office occupant."
JOHN EDWARDS (former U.S. Senator)
O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000)
"Finally! A movie that depicts the challenges faced by those of us with good hair like George Clooney! Excessive combing is just one price we pay. Four-hundred dollars is another."
MITT ROMNEY
(former governor, Salt Lake Winter Games savior)
Blades of Glory (2007)
"Everything I love — Winter Olympic-style pageantry, ice rinks, manly male figure skaters."
