Factual errors: When Franklin Delano Roosevelt addressed the 1924 convention, he did not walk to the podium on crutches. His son James supported him on one side, while he supported himself with a cane on the other. This gave more of an appearance of walking to an observer. moreQuotes:

Ralph Bellamy gives perhaps his best performance as a very credible FDR. Greer Garson and Hume Cronyn give their usual solid efforts, and the supporting cast is all great. The atmosphere is right. The script is surprisingly crisp, but the length of the piece weighs it down. When it reaches the two-hour mark, the whole movie starts to creak. So if you have an interest in history and politics, it's great. If not, it's tough sledding up this long, steep hill.
