"When you're dealing with these things, you have to be really careful not to cross that line into parody," said Oliver Stone about the way he approached his film W. "Credibility is crucial in a movie like this, and restraint is necessary."
You can read the rest of my Q&A with Stone that ran in today's paper here. It consists of all the questions I could squeeze into a hurried 10 minutes. I had really hoped to ask him why he chose to include Bush's pretzel-choking incident in the movie, which felt more than a little extraneous to me, but I ran out of time.
